iPads in Mathematics - 0 views

  • On the whole, there are too many apps focused on rote learning and simple number facts and equations. Having said that, I actually believe the iPad has much to offer teachers and students in Mathematics.
  • The good news from my perspective is that the iPad already is ready to replace textbooks and make Maths an engaging real world experience.
  • Whether you choose Explain Everything, ShowMe, Educreations or ScreenChomp (depending on price, features or usability), using these apps to record children’s learning is a killer feature of the iPad for me.

  • If you are lucky enough to have access to an AppleTV and a full set of iPads, the whole class can switch from one student’s iPad screen to another to participate in an engaging real time discussion without waiting for their turn on the interactive whiteboard.
  • Their recordings can be saved and posted to blogs or other online options to share with outside audiences, with possibilities of feedback or collaboration.

    Amazing possibilities for math I think with the apps discussed in this blog. Love the idea of students recording how they solved math problem on an iPad and then sharing with the class via the interactive white board. Wow!

Behavior Management Software - ClassDojo - 0 views

  •  
    This is a great way to track student behavior (both positive and negative). The students have access, as well as the parents.
  •  
    I have started using it this week and really like it. The parents can get the free app and get instant feedback on their child's behavior. If the parents don't want the app, the website emails them when their child receives a mark (whether positive or negative). It also allows teachers to add comments when needed. Check it out!

    "Field trips get students out of the classroom and into the world, discovering new things, and learning in authentic environments. But for many schools and students, they're an unfortunate rarity. Thankfully there are tech tools that can bring places and experiences fostered by field trips to the classroom."
