STEM...STEAM...Potato...Potato... Whatever the acronym, education in the US these days is focused on improving learning in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Maths. Wise educators recognize that the Arts are a critical component of this process. How can we build if we can't design? How can we design if we can't imagine?  There are many great STEM resources out there on the iPad. Personally, I am a bargain fan though so I am highlighting free resources. You don't get any better than free. 

This resource provides teacher created reviews for apps.  There is also a community to ask questions and a beta board tool to bookmark and create own "pintrest" type board.

This course is designed to act as a resource for educators who are interested in building their own iTunes U courses.

When I received the invitation from the new Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine at the Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, I decided to completely upgrade two seminar workshops. Dr Ian Green from the School of Education here at Adelaide and I have used Padagogy101 (introduction to iPad in HE) and Padagogy201 (more advanced use for L&T) to train over 600 faculty from universities in Australia. For Singapore, Ian wasn't going to be with me and I was solo, as well I needed a better way to leave resources in place for people to revisit. However I was completely surprised at what else happened. During my research I saw lots of great work done by others using Bloom's Taxonomy including the Revised Taxonomy which has now become the Bloom's Digital Taxonomy. However when I discovered the excellent pioneer work done by Kathy Schrock with "Bloomin' Apps" I got the idea for the Padagogy Wheel. Dare I say it but it is the next version for mobile learning of the ongoing importance of Bloom's Taxonomy. Bloom's is still fundamental to good teaching and learning.
