Awesome review on the BrainPOP app (and some other cool ones too!) from Teachers With Apps!

I was recently in Shanghai, and had a wonderful conversation with the Director of the Shanghai Municipal Education Commission. He was thrilled to show me the BrainPOP app on his iPad, and shared that he uses it as a “daily dose” of English practice.
It’s in small bites, it’s fun, and it’s educational.
Wow, the app update has arrived! Now use your BrainPOP subscription for access to all the movies and quizzes on your iOS device.
