This article is from July 2010, but I found it interesting that the featured parents subscribed to the Waldorf approach to learning, but were lured in by the "irresistibility of technology" and began to make apps. "I decided it was better to contribute positively instead of taking a reactionary, orthodox stance." - Lynette Mattke

There's an emerging "app gap" in which affluent children are likely to use mobile educational games while those in low-income families are the most likely to have televisions in their bedrooms. Parents are increasingly allowing their young children to use IPads and IPhones apps for learning and entertaining.

UC Irvine's TLTC frontpage linked to this archived Google presentation on how teachers can use Google apps in Higher Education.
