I have discovered many cool free apps that are incredible for creating digital stories, reading stories, and interacting with stories. These apps are incredibly engaging and meet the needs of our diverse learners. They allow learners to interact with the plot, characters, and even design of the story. They also support multiple learning styles because they are visual, have sound, and animation. Students can even begin to craft their own stories using their voices, drawings, images, videos, and so much more! Check out each of the apps in the playlist I created with a really cool free tool, Mentor Mob, which helps educators organize online learning content into a simple Learning Playlist platform.
Kathy Malsbenden on 11 Dec 12"For educators who are investigating which elements of technology and learning apps to use in their classrooms we encourage asking some key questions. These include: 1. What will the child learn from the app? 2. Does the app offer the child an opportunity to practice a skill needed in school? 3. Does the app motivate a child to transfer that learning into the real world? 4. What conversation and collaboration will the app inspire? "
