This week on the Sunday Business Show Conall spoke to Darya Jegorina, CEO and Founder of CleverBooks who was on the phone from United Arab Emirates, where she was attending the Sharjah Children’s Reading Festival.
CleverBooks is a producer of educational texts that use augmented reality to bring a bit of Harry Potter-style magic to the classroom. She believes that by harnessing the power of moving pictures and graphics, learning doesn’t just become more fun, but that kids retain the knowledge more effectively too.
