From Richard Byrne "Rarely do I write about apps that are "free for a limited time," but Pinnacle Studio is one iPad app that I think deserves your attention. Pinnacle Studio is a video editing app that is free right now although I don't know how long it will be before they start charging. After giving it a try I have to say that you should not waste anytime and grab it now while it's free."

"Creative Book Builder is a fantastic app that allows students to create books in epub format, which can then be exported to iBooks and shared with others. There are a variety of instructional uses for this app, from using it as a publishing tool for project-based learning to a summative assessment at the end of a unit.  Students can embed images, audio files, video files, and write text.  The advantage of an epub document over a PDF document is that all of the media will be preserved and available for readers to interact with when the final product is published.   Depending on how you use Creative Book Builder with students, this app can help students complete tasks that align with every level of the revised Bloom's Taxonomy.  Explore the different ways this app can be used at each level of Bloom's Taxonomy."
