In episode 30 of the EdTech TV Podcast I share 5 Personal Safety Apps to share with your students, friends and co-workers. I also discuss Blab.im as the latest in shared video chat.

Personal Safety Apps

Personal safety is a big issue for everybody these days, and a lot of people aren’t aware that your phone can be used to help keep you and your students safe. Whether it’s walking home from school, getting across a dark parking lot, or making sure that a blind date is comfortable, there are apps out there to help you stay at ease.

1) React Mobile

React Mobile lets your selected contacts keep track of you when you’re moving from place to place or to signal an emergency which will be sent out to contacts and/or the authorities.

2) Circle of 6

Designed with preventing sexual assaults in mind. Circle of 6 lets you quickly reach out to your closest friends when you need help.

5) Kitestring

Kitestring is an SMS service that doesn’t rely on iOS or Android. It can even be used on an “old fashioned” flip phone. It will send you text messages at determined intervals to make sure you are OK.

Blab.im

blab.imBlab is a great service available on iOS or through your browser to set up public and recordable 4-way chats. These chats can be viewed and commented on by anyone via chat, and there are already a lot of educators using it to run shows and hold informal get togethers.
You can also look at using Blab with your students to create shows, etc. Just remember that they are public, so you may need to take privacy concerns into consideration.
