Before being committed to months of \u201call work and no play\u201d library lockdown, I wanted to share some helpful tips on how <a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackberry.com\/smartphones\" >BlackBerry smartphones<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.blackberry.com\/playbook\" >BlackBerry PlayBook<\/a> tablets can be used to help with both studies and relaxation. Remember, staying balanced is one of the keys to mental agility during stressful times!<\/p>\n<p>Here are some great apps available in the <a href=\"http:\/\/appworld.blackberry.com\/webstore\/?lang=en\" >BlackBerry App World<\/a> storefront to help students with their schoolwork (while having a little fun, too):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/appworld.blackberry.com\/webstore\/content\/90647\/?lang=en\" >Ignite Study Flash Card<\/a> by Kenneth Poon<\/a>:<\/strong> They say we need to see a piece of information three times before it gets committed to memory. With this handy flash card app, users can memorize with ease, accessing study materials while on the go in a fun quiz format! I like that the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet app doesn\u2019t give away answers immediately. Instead, it offers hints, which give it a fun and unique edge to standard flashcards.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span id=\"more-15341\"><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/appworld.blackberry.com\/webstore\/content\/92331\/?lang=en\" >StudyPal<\/a> by <a href=\"http:\/\/appworld.blackberry.com\/webstore\/vendor\/32908\/?lang=en\" >Nadia Munim<\/a>:<\/strong> Students can think of this app as a \u201cpersonal trainer\u201d for their brains. As the saying goes, this app helps with \u201cplanning your work and working your plan\u201d in the crux of exams. For someone like me who worries about forgetting little details, a BlackBerry PlayBook tablet app that keeps important information in one place is a huge stress-reliever.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/appworld.blackberry.com\/webstore\/content\/8423\/?lang=en\" >Hangman<\/a> by <a href=\"http:\/\/appworld.blackberry.com\/webstore\/vendor\/2004\/?lang=en\" >Spice<\/a>:<\/strong> Even the hardest working student needs a break sometimes! I recommend having a little fun in between cram sessions by downloading a cult-classic game like Hangman, which is a personal favorite. This version is especially fun because it includes a range of themes, such as Hollywood, Sports and Music\u2014and because it\u2019s available for a BlackBerry smartphone or BlackBerry PlayBook tablet.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/rimblogs.files.wordpress.com\/2013\/01\/study-apps-1.jpg?w=400&#038;h=366\" alt=\"Study apps for BlackBerry\" title=\"Study apps for BlackBerry\" width=\"400\" height=\"366\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15351\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/appworld.blackberry.com\/webstore\/content\/11998\/?lang=en\" >My Study Room Theme<\/a> by <a href=\"http:\/\/appworld.blackberry.com\/webstore\/vendor\/1613\/?lang=en\" >VImukti Technologies Pvt Ltd.<\/a>:<\/strong> While you\u2019re loading up your BlackBerry smartphone with study apps and essentials, why not download a new theme to match?
