Three Ring | An App for Teachers to Create Educational Portfolios of Student Work with ... - 7 views

  •  
    This looks like a really cool app to explore. You can pull up a student's work for parent-teacher conferences, assessment, or use as exemplars. How it works: With your smartphone or ipad, you can take a photo and tag it before you upload it and organize.

    Downloaded - I'll be giving it a try - I have used a notebook creating app for a similar purpose, but this seems to be designed for what I have been forcing the other app to do. I wish you could add voice recordings as I like to do running records, and fluency analysis after I take a picture of a page a student is reading.

    Take a picture with our app, and it's online in seconds Three Ring is a website that allows you to securely upload photos of student work. With Three Ring, you can sort by class, student, or custom tag to easily find the artifact you're looking for.

    joe- it looks you CAN add your own audio recording to each piece of student work. i could not find, however, any reference to an ability to upload files. so it looks like the only way to add student work it to take a picture of it.

    This is a new concept for a search engine that combines a concept map, web sites, images, videos and more in an easy to use format that you can adjust for grade level. I am going to try using it with 2nd grade when we do our continents project.

National Geographic Explorer Magazine - 3 views

  •  
    For $258 we could get 21 issues of National Geographic Explorer for the ipad (for each of our 20 ipads in the smith cart) - with 7 K-1 issues, 7 2-3 issues and 7 4-6 issues (also can be used for higher readers in 2-3). Much more cost effective then ordering paper copies, and a great way to make digital literature available in all K-5 classrooms. App is very interactive and connections to grade level science content occur often. http://magma.nationalgeographic.com/ngexplorer/pioneer/

    I like that idea. I was looking into magazines for 1st grade but like that this is interactive. Would it have to be split from team budgets?
  •  
    Looks good, kids would really love it. I would be willing to help pay the costs with some of my budget. Could use the content to address the ELA common core science standards.
  •  
    I love the way NG differentiates for reading levels!

    Researchers from Columbia University, the University of Maryland, and the Smithsonian Institution beat me to this. They developed this free mobile app that uses visual recognition software to help identify tree species from photographs of their leaves. I use it to help students practice careful observation prior to writing. It motivates them to use specific nouns when describing a setting.
