Using QR Codes to Build a Classroom Audio Library We know that children of all ages not only enjoy being read to, but need it. Because of this, teachers at my school carefully construct our literacy blocks to maximize the amount of time spent in shared reading and writing experiences throughout the day. In addition to participating in whole-group shared reading lessons, students need to work independently toward personal literacy goals.

TechSmith With the imminent discontinuation of Adobe’s support for and development of Adobe Flash, Jing’s use of the .SWF Flash video format will no longer be possible.
