This App Makes the Volvo Ocean Race Come Alive – The Ocean Race Review

I'm a life long sailor and a teacher. Sailing is a major interest for me and I follow major sailing events. I've used the VOR App to follow the race since the start in Spain. I found it user friendly in terms of navigation and the vivid photography and video truly make the come alive. The digital Tracker provides quick and easy to understand position information. My day job is teaching high school. I decided to incorporate the Volvo Ocean Race into our social studies curriculum. Mysterious of my students have never sailed and don't know a thing about sailboats or ocean racing. We've been following the race since the beginning of Leg Two. They students look forward to each day's VOR class segment. We use the iPad App to project race news through our classroom flat panel. The vivid videos, user friendly graphics, and daily updates have enthralled the students.the effectiveness of this app is demonstrated by the enthusiasm of my students. The bottom line: the VOR App is easy to navigate, vivid visually, and has great graphics. Nicely done, developers!
