Apps Aren't Everything - blog post from Moms with Apps - 0 views

  •  
    Good blog post on the iPad frenzy "We are at a position where the iPad is showing solid potential as an educational tool, and many developers are running experiments on the app store to test out those theories. But conclusions have not been drawn. Long term studies have not been completed. And I still don't see many app development teams including teachers and educators directly within their development process. YOU, as the consumer, have the responsibility to think critically whenever new media or content is put in front of your child. Now is the time to dust off your report card and ask the tough questions, before the trendy momentum of consumer culture takes over."

Tech Supported Tools to Foster Kids' Creativity - 0 views

  •  
    "In our last post we described how theories of creativity and learning should be integrated with creative problem solving approaches to address our nation's creativity crisis. Recent advances in technology are enabling creators of children's digital media to design more experiences that foster children's creativity and learning. Although children's digital media producers are beginning to create products for children that are marketed as creative tools, there is still a lack of mechanisms that have fully captured the type of open-ended, imaginative play that is proven to foster the roots of creativity in children."
