Washington, DC (PRWEB) March 31, 2012

For paper hungry schools and universities, there are good news ahead. What used to be affordable only for Fortune 500 Corporate Learning Centers and Executive Teams in Training, will be made available free of charge, starting in April, 2012 to Schools and Universities [1] . A student will now be able to see all their course materials, week by week, in a notebook like app. Each week course has the materials, room logistics, the professor profile, related websites and videos. The student can even tweet the teacher, or link with them in LinkedIn or Facebook. Finding Accounting 201 week 3 is just a touch away. Students will be able to answer questions real time from their mobile devices. Launching an Idea Challenge [2] to change the world ("How might we fix the Healtcare System in our country with open source information technology?"), and building innovation skills and entrepreneurship based on the course topic is also a click away.

Schools and Universities will now have this mobile app capability for free from Zwoor.com.

From School and Universities to Fortune 1000 Corporate Boards, Zwoor Event and Zwoor Survey mobile apps meet the various needs for handling learning needs. The mobile applications are free to download from the iTunes store, Google Android or Amazon Android Marketplace. The subscription model for a school or university to load the course materials and create the mobile surveys can be completely free.

Schools and Universities are all about connecting people to people, and people to knowkedge, and the mobile apps from Zwoor.com [3] are amplifying the connection and learning power. And now, are also able to provide real time insights on how much the students understand the topic. A two question quick survey in the middle of the course, to test how much was understood, is just a click away. The students answer from the iPhone or mobile phone, or from the personal computer. The topic is then further discussed.

Attendees can now “follow” the teacher in Twitter or LinkedIn, signal their interest on participating on an agenda topic or contributing to a related event or course, tweet to the course hash tag â€" all from within the mobile app. Native Twitter integration, and pre-filed hash tags makes it easy for students to share news on the course. A personalized calendar on the mobile app provides a clear journey for the course. And, for the teacher, real time understanding of how students understand the topic.

The Zwoor Event mobile app puts all Course or School Event materials [4] , including agenda, course materials , course room maps, teacher bios, all at the students’ fingertip, on their mobile device. Be that an iPad, iPhone, Kindle Fire or an Android tablet or phone, the content is available online or offline. Once the content is synched, all materials are contained on the tablet â€" no connection required, even in an airplane. Real time feedback and rating of the topic is included in each agenda item, allowing a student to provide instant comments directly from the mobile app. All the materials are easily uploaded by the course administrator or by the teacher directly, via a simple to use browser interface at Zwoor.com.

“Zwoor.com [5] provides to Universities and Schools an easy to use platform to distribute the course materials, presenter bio, or an event agenda to the participants’ mobile devices, be that iPads, iPhones or Android tablets. We offer an easy way to connect presenters to attendees, and attendees to attendees, in real time, during the event meetings, all via mobile devices. No more paper printing, and out-of-date information. Just an engaging and focused learning environment, for brilliant knowledge and lasting connections. Paperless, real-time, engaged, efficient .” said Ken Burns, External Relations, Zwoor.com.
For more sophisticated surveys of the audience, the Zwoor Survey app [6] allows the creation and distribution of surveys, online or offline. The library of templates speeds up the creation of high quality surveys, be that for capturing understanding on a topic, a short quiz or testing students via a timed survey. Real time results sharing creates dialog, and increases the relevancy of the conversation.
