Summary: | Statistics have shown that in the first quarter of 2018, there were about 2 million apps available for download for IOS devices while there were about 3.8 million Android apps which were available for download (Statista, 2018a). Out of these millions of apps, tens of thousands of them are educational apps. Some of these apps can help both educators and students in their teaching and learning activities. However, because of the sheer number of apps available to be downloaded for free in the market, it has become hard for educators and students to choose which ones are right for them to fulfil their needs. In order to help them determine the overall quality of these educational apps and gauge their specific strengths and weaknesses, several educational app evaluation rubrics have been proposed by researchers. This study aims to analyse these evaluation rubrics for their comprehensiveness and usefulness to users, especially for educators who want to choose applications which could complement their formal or informal teaching activities |
