The Goal:

The Disclaimers1. Some of these are

just plain nuts….I am not advocating the purchase of the device. Although, I have and love some

2. Some have NO benefit to the classroom, some

could if you got creative, and some for sure could be used in the classroom

3. Different Versions Will be on the Same Page.

Think all the different Fit Bits.

4. We won’t go over all the different versions in

the main categories. There are simply to many

different wearable cameras, health trackers, and watches. We will hit

the highlights

5. This highlights consumer tech so

nothing like prosthetics

6. I do not claim that these product do what

they say….Do your RESEARCH
