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.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • 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!

  •  
    "This comprehensive virtual tour allows visitors using a desktop computer (Windows, Mac, Linux) or a mobile device (iPhone, iPad, Android) to take a virtual, self-guided, room-by-room walking tour of the whole museum. You can even browse a list of past exhibits, which is included on the ground floor map (see upper right map buttons). The visitor can navigate from room to room by clicking map locations or by following blue arrow links on the floor that connect the rooms. The desktop version includes camera icons to indicate hotspots where the visitor can get a close-up view of a particular object or exhibit panel. "

In Classrooms - Subtext - 1 views

  •  
    "When books have no boundaries, classrooms have no walls. Subtext makes it easy to interact with your students right in the pages of digital books-you can answer questions, link to websites, create custom quizzes and more. Equally as important, your students can exchange their own ideas and talk about books whenever and wherever they're reading."
