Review: BrainPOP Featured Movie is an app is an extension of BrainPOP.  It is an educational video app that provides short, impactful videos on a variety of topics ranging from math and engineering to English, history, and health (and several subjects in between).  Additionally, it provides content specific multiple choice styled quizzes on each video and keeps track of your scores.  While I don’t feel that BrainPOP Featured Movie is the best app for 21st Century learning, I do think that this is a great supplemental resource for parents and teachers to use in their classrooms.  I wish it was more interactive, and that it had more featured unlocked in the Free version.  BrainPOP is easy to navigate, interactive, and delivers fun and informative material that students of a variety of ages enjoy (I’ve even used their videos for my high school students).
