blog discussing new accessibility features in iOS5...has a few good links to get more info...

The website for my favorite screen casting app. Easy to use with pupils and great opportunities to use is across the curriculum. The website has lots of support and videos my 5th graders used to learn how to use the app.

This is a fantastic resource for students, educators and parents. This website hosts curriculum for online learning and social networking information that can be used in classrooms and in homes. According to it's site summary: Common Sense Media improves the lives of kids and families by providing independent reviews, age ratings, & other information about all types of media.

I love this site! I was just looking for something similar to Photostory on PCs. This isn't exactly it, since it doesn't allow audio voiceovers and student drawings (at least from what I can tell) but it is drop-dead gorgeous. Can't wait until they release an iPad app -- imagine this on the retina display :) I am definitely going to use this in class -- maybe even this week. I also love that it's a creative writing social networking tool that encourages best work, creativity, and collaboration. Thanks for posting!
