The Author of this booklet, Sean Sweeney, came up with his own app reviewing system which he called the "FIVES". Yet another acronym to add to the Education world. Using this system, he rates apps and other resources using 5 questions: Free? Interactive? Visual? Educational Relevant? Speechie? On page four of the booklet there is a short explanation of what each part of the rating system means. Speechie is a self-coined term by the author.
