The newly-implemented random sounds in combination with the existing random alternate camera selections ensure there are literally thousands of unique viewings of the story.

Sophia Antipolis, France – L’Escapadou today is pleased to announce and release and availability of one of the first educational iPad apps based on the proven Montessori learning method.

Packed with fun animations and sounds, Montessori Crosswords also features an animated Movable Alphabet to entertain younger kids and help them learn letters.

Montessori Crosswords provides an amusing way to learn letters for children as young as 3, and can be used by children up to 10 or more to improve and reinforce their word-spelling and literacy skills.

An article including a quick introduction to the Montessori approach to reading and writing, and how to use the game as an educational tool, is also provided.

Montessori Crosswords was created after we observed our homeschooled daughter having fun with a Montessori picture-spelling activity. We wanted to recreate this experience in a lighweight format, adding all the fun that the iPad technology can bring, such as direct interactions, animations and sounds, as well as automatic crosswords construction.

Features:
* 282 different words, and associated pictures – more to come
* Three word series of increasing difficulty, as defined in the Montessori method
* Crosswords are created randomly to offer thousands of different combinations

Montreal, Canada – Announcing that PMChampion, the developer of This is GRE and This is GMAT, has launched the first two apps of their ‘This is…’ series, to help grad school hopefuls succeed in their entrance application. These apps are the first two in a series of fully loaded, complete training packages for students preparing for entrance to graduate school and college. The applications help users score as high as they possibly can on their Graduate Record Exam (GRE) and Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) and to increase chances of being accepted by their preferred university.

The Graduate Record Exam (GRE) and Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) are required parts of a grad school application in most U.S. universities. As the test gives an indication of a student’s potential success, it carries substantial weight when administrators are considering applications for entrance to their programs. Understandably, universities prefer to welcome those with a greater chance for a successful academic term. Writing the GRE or GMAT is serious business.

Developers at PMChampion specialize in educational courses and have designed these applications as comprehensive training packages containing everything students need to know before taking either of the exams. Unlike other apps, developers have left nothing out. Users are fully prepared to give their entrance exams their best shot after completing the training. In fact, the developers boast that users of This is GMAT will raise their scores by at least 100 points, if they follow the program properly.

When users download This is GRE or This is GMAT, they get all the educational tools they need in one convenient spot on their iPhone or iPod Touch. There are numerous aids including lessons, vocabulary, practice tests and valuable study tips, all geared to prepare students thoroughly for taking their exam.

While the developers naturally cannot guarantee admittance to any university or program, all of the apps from their ‘This is…’ series can help students do the absolute best they’re capable of for this part of entrance requirements.

This is GRE and This is GMAT may be segments of an ongoing series but they are also part of an existing educational product line for PMChampion. The developers offer an online training course for the Project Management Professional (PMP) Exam, which assists those trying for certification and have future plans for the release of This is SAT for the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT), which is due out sometime in March 2010.

Device Requirements:
iPhone or iPod Touch 3.0 or later

Pricing and Availability:
This is GRE and This is GMAT are each only $9.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category. Take advantage of ongoing introductory discounts that are offered for a limited time.
