The thing I've always liked about Dr. Campbell is how she always provides practical examples for utilizing apps, and here she provides ideas on how to apply some science related apps in the classroom.

Short video using objects as something other than they were intended for (pareidolia). Use as example for students to create films.

This is a very well, designed and user friendly classroom blogging tool. I have been using it with my fifth graders and it is working very well. I can review all of the content before allowing it to be posted. I can make comments and mark errors and re-submit it to the student to be corrected. I can even pull up a blog as an example and edit it in front of the class without telling them whose blog it is. Pretty cool :-)

This research article provides an overview of how transformative learning experiences can be created through instructional design.  The aim is to use instruction to make learning more experiential, personally relevant and transformative to students.  The authors explain a framework for providing transformative learning experiences, including several indicators that fall into the categories of developing personal meaning, competence with the subject and relationships.  The authors also present guidelines for designing these experiences, including applying design fundamentals, crafting the learning experience and teaching and facilitating to inspire learning. A quick, but worth while read! Wilson, B. G., & Parrish, P. (2011). Transformative learning experience: Aim higher, gain more. Educational Technology, 51 (2), 10-15.

A great reference for good examples of teachers successfully implementing technology in the classroom. As well as a list of free apps for the classroom!

This site has tutorials for multiple different math subjects providing many examples. Once you select a math level you can then select the individual topic and this site provides help with interactivity for students as they work towards the solution.

The item specifications part of the FLDOE website has been critical to prepare my students for FCA's and FCAT. If you find the item specification you can read to find out which pieces of information are tested. I try not to exclude data, but to ensure I cover the material being tested thoroughly. One example are states of matter teach three states or four states? Plasma is a state of matter not tested until high school. I include it to provoke thought, but I do not make it the main focus of my sixth grade lessons.

I thought this may help some who are teaching students how to write research papers. It has some great outlining examples.
