Kindle Fire




The Kindle Fire will enable the next generation of 1:1 education apps


This is another article on the Kindle Fire.  It mentions the how the Kindle is of a good size at 7 inches.  It is a perfect size for big and small hands and fits easily into bags.  It has traffic optimization which allows many Kindles to be used at one time.  I am not familiar with a lot of the technological vocabulary used in this article but it speaks a lot about the processor that the Kindle Fire uses.  I like that this article is so positive about the Kindle Fire and its features.  I also agree that the size of the Kindle Fire is better for younger children’s hands.  An iPad is so big compared to a child’s hands.

  1. Size is important and that is a good observation.

    It is something of a cop-out to dismiss the article so quickly because "I am not familiar with the technological vocabulary used in this article." How will you become familiar with it if you do not look into it to try to understand it. I am afraid this is, at best, only an average response. While it is hardly enough to hurt your overall grade, you have not met the educational expectation here very well. :-(
