The three Rs get rad with an iPad

From the blog - "I have been asked time and time again by students, teachers and technology specialists just what I am installing on my class set of iPads.  Well, here's the post you've all been waiting for.  Below is the list of all applications that I am installing to start off my iPad project.  At current prices the total cost of the apps came to just under $200 per 'set' of iPads. (with Apple's new licensing rules)"

Discover how the iPad impacts the classroom, evaluate the anytime, anywhere content development and see how useful it is to merge 60 pounds of textbooks or an entire library into a 1.5 pound device. Learn how to take advantage of all that this incredible device has to offer from downloading and managing apps to an exploration of the latest education apps to increase productivity as well as student learning.

VoiceThread Mobile for Apple® iDevices VoiceThread bridges the gap between real-time discussions and static multi-media slideshows, making it the platform for on-demand teaching, learning, training, and collaborating. We are working with the lofty goal of true accessibility so that any "door" used to access VoiceThread is equally effective for your means of participation. "We want to serve the needs of a person with dyslexia or ADHD, an outdoor classroom with mobile devices, a user in the developing world without high-speed internet, a kindergartner, or an elderly lifelong learner." (Read more) With that goal in mind, we'll be releasing a Mobile App this fall for the iPad®/iPhone®/iPod touch® that will provide the same experience of creating and collaborating around your content on your Mobile device that you would experience in the web-based application... and we're pretty excited about that! Take a look, and tell us what you think.
