App Review: Shakespeare in Bits

SHAKESPEARE IN BITS from MindConnex is an engaging way to immerse young adults in the plays of Shakespeare. Titles include Julius Caesar, Hamlet, Romeo & Juliet, Macbeth, and A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

Teens will be impressed by the hours of high-quality animation, professional audio, and easy-to-follow, unabridged play text. Built-in tools provide in-line translations to help students understand difficult words and antiquated phrases.

The depth of content is outstanding including plot summaries, detailed analysis and study notes, character and relationship data, and other resources.

Keep in mind that these apps aren’t designed for children. They’re created for high-school students. The apps contain the violence, sex, drinking, and language of the original plays.

The apps are available in different purchase options including single and multi-user versions. The content can be accessed on both computers and mobile devices.
