TORONTO – Groupe Média TFO has officially launched its new browser-based app for parents and teachers that rates and ranks English and French educational apps.
EduLulu is the first of its kind Canadian service in digital learning that offers independent evaluations of iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play) content available in the Canadian market.
Developed in collaboration with a panel of experts in the educational and technology spheres, EduLulu currently features 300 rated English and French apps, and promises that more than 100 reviewed apps will be added to the service every month. EduLulu ranks reviewed apps on a five ‘bone’ rating system, (the Lulu in EduLulu is an animated dog, so the more bones the better), and parents and educators will be able to search rated apps by ratings, subject and children’s age.
TFO also announced that it has recorded over 10 million digital views of its MiniTFO YouTube channel, a 1,000% increase in audience viewing over a 15 month period.
“TFO has clearly demonstrated that when it comes to creating educational products and services for children, their parents and educators, we are an emerging leader,” said CEO Glenn O’Farrell, in the news release. “We have the capacity to provide more added value in developing digital education solutions. This is where we found the inspiration for our most recent initiative, EduLulu, a newly launched browser-based app for parents and teachers.”
