Itching to learn something new but don’t have enough in your budget to pay for classes? No problem! As long as you aren’t aiming to study a topic that’s incredibly niche and specialized, you can use one of the following apps to earn yourself up to a college-level education without paying a cent.

 

Of course, proper instruction from a qualified teacher would be better than simply learning from an app, so it should be made clear that these apps are only recommended as supplements or when a formal education is not an option for whatever reasons.

 

 

Coursera

Coursera has proven itself as one of the best places to get an online education for free. They’ve partnered with 100+ top universities from all over the world to provide quality education at a price everyone can afford and their selection is vast: 600+ courses across 20+ subject areas.\

 

While Coursera classes do follow a schedule, it’s flexible enough that you aren’t locked into specific times of day. Classes are interactive, available in at least 14 languages, and all course contents are provided free of charge to download at your convenience. Get started with thesemust-learn Coursera courses.

 

Alternatives to Coursera include Udemy, which contains a mixture of free and paid courses, and Udacity, which is an online course platform that focuses strictly on programming-related topics......

 

 

Star Chart

For those who love outer space, this app is a must. Star Chart brings the night sky right to your phone (or tablet) and grants you the ability to explore it from any angle. Just hold your device up in the air and the app will determine where you’re pointing based on your location and orientation.

 

Star Chart’s database includes all 88 constellations and 120,000+ different stars. Tap on an entity to learn more about it, zoom and move around using finger gestures, and use the Time Shift feature to see what everything looked like up to 10,000 years in the past or future.

 

It’s a wonderful tool to bring along the next time you go hiking.

 

For these reasons, we consider Star Chart to be one of the best currently available astronomy apps for Android. If Star Chart isn’t enough for you, perhaps you could try one of the others: Solar Walk or Sky Map.........
