teachwithyouripad - Grade 3-5 Apps - 3 views

  •  
    This a great wiki organized by subject, grade level or topic---and has good descriptions and images of the apps.  There are also links directly to the apps on itunes---good source for those looking for apps in a new way!

    Hi Mel, Great resource. More sites like this need to be out there to help teachers sift through the thousands of programs available and get to the usable ones that have been tested by teachers. I think I may have got this link from you before. I did share it with a few of our principals so they may pass it on to their teachers.

    The SMART Notebook iPad app has arrived!  I personally have not had a chance to look at it, but the author of this article did.  James does a wonderful job explaining the pitfalls to using this new app - especially when we have a SMART board in a classroom.

    App allows user to push buttons that come in the form of pictures. By pushing buttons the students needs will be verbalized. Parents, teachers, friends, and etc. voices can be recorded so the verbalized needs are personalized and familiar.

New Ipad App for Classroom Collaboration - 4 views

  •  
    This is an article discussing a new Ipad App called "Spin" which allows students to hold a online, collaborative discussion while viewing multiple videos at once. This is said to be the new "Skype" allowing communication and interactive discussion to occur throughout the world with one application. Something for teachers to look into for their own classrooms one day! This application seems like it might have a future in our schools.

    Wow, what a great collaborative app! In addition to implementing in the classroom, this appears to also have great potential for facilitating distance education. I wonder what the network bandwidth requirements are and how many simultaneous video streams can be supported?
  •  
    This looks like it could be the future of distance education. A great tool that could be incorporated into a class like our online Ed Tech classes at UNI. I am not sure if I would use this in a regular classroom, it would depend on the lesson, but this appears to be the new and best option for online video discussions.
  •  
    This looks like it has some great potential. I am going to have to check it out further.
  •  
    This is a really cool App that will be very useful in Problem Based Learning environments because it is a great collaborative tool. Great Post Hannah!

    Great resource for ideas and collaborating with other educators regarding the use of iPads in education through blogs, tips, discussions, and videos. Great job on your "QR Code Crime Scene" video you posted to the Ning!!! Excellent example of what is possible!! I joined the Ning and will share this with teachers using iPads in our school.
  •  
    Do agree or disagree that the resource can be used efficiently in your own future classroom? Explain why or why not. I agree that this resource could be used efficiently in my classroom. I have an iPad in my classroom and this website gives great ideas of apps to use. Do you believe the resource is mostly for teacher use, student use, or both? Explain your perceptions constructively. I believe the resource is mostly for teacher use but allows teachers to find apps for student use. Teachers can find resources, download them, and then allow students to use them. Are you aware of any simililar resources that should be considered? If so, what are those resources. Yes, I have also seen websites that provide lists of apps and have included them in my own library.

    This is a great resource and one that totally is worth checking out! This is for sure a tool that can be used in the classroom. It is chalked full of great ideas and awesome tools to use in the classroom. This is mainly a tool for teacher use, but it could also be a resource for students looking for a different way to complete a project. There are many different uses of such an amazing ning like this! There are some great other Nings out there, Facebook pages, groups on LMS sites like Schoology, and other websites out there that are similar. This one is unique because of the Ning platform for sure!
  •  
    iPad technology is a new teaching tool will be used by teachers in classrooms. if will be very beneficial for both teachers and students 
  •  
    I thought this resource was great and thought provoking for the educator that has access to i pads in the classroom. Not only could educators use this source but parents as well. I also agree with Randon that it has student uses as well. I agree with Randon as well that many other resources and social media pages such as facebook and twitter are available, however the creation of this site gives a different navigational system to explore.
  •  
    This is a great resource for teachers and students in the classroom. The more resources that we have the greater the level of learning can be. Teachers and students will benefit for this resource. Thanks for sharing
