The History 2.0 Classroom: Back to School App-pack - 8 views

  •  
    "The summer is quickly winding down & a number of teachers will be returning to their classroom with new mobile devices (iPads). Throughout the summer I have been conducting workshops on iPad integration with EdTechTeacher and I thought it might be helpful to pull together a back to school list of apps structured around specific classroom goals. While many schools may already have an Apple VPP program already in place, I know a number of teachers will also be purchasing the apps themselves. Therefore, I will do my best to include both a pay & free app for each objective."

    "Ever since its initial release, the iPad has been for me the best mobile tool for showcasing photos. While several basic iPad image programs, including the built-in Photo app, are great for photo management and quick slide shows, the latest version of the Pholium iPad app includes tools for actually creating ebooks."

  •  
    "Programming games is a challenging business. If you've never done it before, you might be surprised at how much code goes into making the most simple things happen on screen. And if you've always wanted to make a game for iOS devices, on top of actually creating the game, there's the App Store approval process and, of course, the wailing hordes that are App Store reviewers. Well, now there's a new way to try your hand at programming on Apple's tablet -- a new app from Adelaide-based Two Lives Left known as Codify."

NPR is also well known for a wide variety of music programs and podcasts, so it's fitting that it recently released the iPad version of NPR Music."

Apps in Education: Managing Individual Education Programs (IEP) on the iPad - 8 views

  •  
    "Individual Education Programs (IEP) can be difficult to put in place at the best of times. IEP's are sometime a source of concern and frustration. The more informed people are about the IEP process the better the IEP can be. Parents will normally work with teachers to develop a plan to help the students succeed in school. The IEP assists this process by describing the goals the whole team sets for a student during the school year, as well as any special support needed to help achieve them. Here are a number of apps that make managing and collecting data for the IEP Process just that little bit easier."

Apps in Education: Are We Really Evaluating the Use of iPads in Our Classroom - 3 views

  •  
    "One of the things we need to be doing as educators is to critically evaluate the resources and learning experiences that we provide for our students. This is even more important when we are spending vast sums of public money to implement new or innovative hardware devices into our schools. At the moment only short term studies have been released showing the benefits or not of using 1:1 tablet programs. There are few that are easily accessible to teachers or that outline specific strategies for implementing tablet programs. It would good to create a collection of these if people are aware of them. Send them through and I will add them to this article. These could even be cited when making the argument for implementing such programs. "
