Five reasons to customise your nsquared education apps.




Did you know that you can add curriculum relevant content to nsquared education apps? 

nsquared’s education admin portal enables you to easily change content in many of the education software applications. 
This means that you can either use the content packs that we create and upload for you, or you can create your own content. 


Libraries and Community centres are using this feature to promote current global and local events in an entertaining and educational way that’s fun for everyone. 
School teachers and school librarians are also using the web based content management tool to easily introduce content that’s relevant to units of learning. 

Some ideas for content you can create:
1. Create a jigsaw puzzle of a picture from your last school field trip.
2. Build a new pack for nsquared makewords to teach the students how to spell words related to your current class project.
3. Help students to recognize items from the latest history lessons by adding them to a game of nsquared snap.
4. Use nsquared missing card to help students solve maths problems.
5. Help the students to remember the artifacts they have been learning about by collecting them in nsquared herding.

“It has the benefit of engaging students who we’d normally see completely disconnected from their learning experiences”
Parramatta Marist College. 

If engaging your students and community members is high on your agenda, visit the nsquared admin portal to add new and exciting content to your software.

A new, social way to explore the world

There is no rest to be had here in the nsquared studio, we have been busy working away on our latest multi-user, multi-touch application.

Introducing nsquared maps, a new, social way to explore the world!



This unique multi-user application allows for teams to gather around a digital table such as the Samsung SUR40 or Microsoft Perceptive Pixel screen and work with maps together.

nsquared maps features an individual map for each person. Each map can be easily resized or rotated with intuitive hand gestures. When you find a map you wish to keep, simply save the map for loading at a later date. You can even annotate maps with shapes and freehand drawing, plot routes, add your own pins, and import geo feeds.

This premium multi-touch application enables more fluid, meaningful conversation within the team. No need to look over small mobile screens or tablets, or turn your back to an audience to by referring to a vertical screen -  work together in a 360 degree, tabletop environment to view and annotate digital maps together. Team members can contribute to the discussion by bringing up their own individual maps, such as a company location, emergency reports or news source on the same screen. Communication becomes effortless, more impactful and faster as peers can easily see what their colleagues are wanting to share across the screen.
