Great list put together by Paul Hamilton for apps that support reading and writing. Also click to the main website to see apps that support multiple means of representation, expression, engagement.
Just announced at ISTE...a free online portal to help educators from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade find, use, and share the best digital apps, games, and websites for their students.
This is a great reading app. It can import text in many formats ( great with Dropbox) and even read PPT and Keynote presentations. You can change the size of text. Hold on a word to see its definition (doesn't read the definition). Hold on a word then select text to create highlights, bookmarks, and notes. These appear in a separate list which, when accessed, takes you back to the original spot in the text and begins reading from that point. Great voices. This is one of the better reading apps I've found...just wish the definitions would read and the highlighted text would actually highlight instead of ending up in a different location. $9.99
Adam Foster of @iPadTeachers has written an excellent guide to using Book Creator in the classroom. 99¢ on the iBooks Store and well worth it. You could do Book Creator activities with your class or workshops for educators for years with the number of ideas packed into this tutorial. Many subject areas. Many of the activities include App Smashing ideas.
My favourite book creating app by far. links to downloads and blog with ideas for usingFree app on iTunes. Ideal for children's picture books, photo books, art books, cook books, manuals, textbooks, and more.
Great post shows the difference between old-school and wonderfully creative Pro-D on technology. Participants used tech in the course of real problem solving. Posts about ChatterPix written by Ms. Hayes
