  •  
    Tremendous amount of links for the iPad
  • ...3 more comments...

    Some of the links are not working. But I opened one about good apps and found many that we are already using (reassuring) and found something called AirPrint which prints from the iPad over WiFi... that might be worth exploring.
  •  
    I can't believe how much is in this binder ... and all of the sub tabs. What a wealth of information! I love the whole binder format.
  •  
    Love the link to edutopia's revised blooms taxonomy...article in three parts lists apps that apply to different parts of bloom... Found great vocab app that is free through this site called bluster.
  •  
    Check out "75 tips and tricks" for general iPad help! It's a great how-to review and may come in handy for other technical questions.

    Read over one link that really helped with quite a few shortcuts and tips to assist while using the keyboard. So much info is there. Quite helpful!

Classroom Ideas for Learning with an iPad - iPads for Learning - Department of Educatio... - 1 views

  •  
    Some good ideas for creative iPad lessons that could work for us.

    Several lesson ideas using only a few different iPad apps (Strip Designer, Idea Sketch, Numbers, etc.) so it's not overwhelming to think about :)

Quick-edit Videography with iMovie for iPad « Moving at the Speed of Creativity - 1 views

  • 1. Start an iPad iMovie by clicking the “+” icon at the bottom of the screen.
  • 2. Click the video window to show available videos on the iPad. These are videos which have been saved to the Photo Roll. Click the arrow on a video to insert it into your project where the playhead (the red line) is positioned.
  • 3. Note as videos are inserted into a project, iMovie for iPad adds a yellow border around them in the video library. This makes them appear different from other videos so you can identify ones not yet imported into the project. (They won’t have a colored border around them.) Also notice the total time of the imported video is shown at the end of the last clip.
  • ...13 more annotations...
  • 4. Click the settings icon (it looks like a gear) in the upper right corner to choose a theme for your project. My favorite is the CNN iReport theme, since it allows you to show your location as well as a project title at the start of your video.
  • 5. To “split” a clip into two parts, first drag the clip so the playhead (red line) is on the spot where you want it split. Think of a split like you are cutting the video into two pieces with a virtual knife. Click on the clip ONCE to select it. It should be highlighted in yellow when selected.
  • 6. Next, swipe your finger down, across the clip over the red playhead line. This will split the clip into two pieces.
  • 7. Double click a clip to make changes to the settings for it. These include setting a title, a location (used in the opening title of the iReport theme) and adjusting the clip’s audio level. Individual clips can also be deleted from this menu.
  • 8. Select the Title Style and choose the desired option. Color and formatting differences apply to different title styles. The iReport theme includes three styles for the opening, middle and ending of the video.
  • 9. Text can be entered for each title style by touching the “Title Text Here” area in the video preview window. Text will resize automatically to fit in the space provided.
  • 11. Click the MY PROJECTS tab at the top of the screen to return to the starting menu for iMovie for iPad. Click the title to change it as desired.
  • 12. Individual clips can be trimmed by clicking on them once to select them. This will reveal “trimming handles” which look like dots above the starting and ending points of a clip. Drag these trimming handles to the left or right to shorten or lengthen a clip as desired.
  • 13. Transitions are automatically inserted between different clips in your iMovie. Click on the transition icon between clips to modify it. By default a cross-dissolve transition is used.
  • 14. When you are finished editing and ready to publish your project, click the MY PROJECTS tab at the top to return to the home screen. Then click the publish icon at the bottom of the screen, which looks like a box with an arrow on it. Select the desired location for sharing.
  • 15. Enter the desired title, description, category and tags for your video. Additionally, choose the size to share (large is recommended) and the privacy settings.
  • 16. Click SHARE in the upper right corner. Your video will now EXPORT into a compressed format
  • 17. After your video is published, iMovie will display a screen with the option to TELL A FRIEND. If you select this option, you can email yourself the direct link to your video.

Elementary School iPad Apps - 4 views

  •  
    Templates for Elementary Students looks interesting. Maybe for creating newspaper articles? Do they still do this in 4th grade current events? I've seen several mentions of Spell Board. Has anyone purchased it? It's $4.99 and I can't tell if it might be too limiting. Having a hard time finding really good apps for teaching spelling.

    Lisa K, Check out Modelli Pages and Stationary Set at the apps store. We have those 2 template apps on the iPad cart.
  •  
    Spellboard looks like it would be a good app for our kids! It does cost $4.99, but from the looks of it, there is lots you can do with word lists you provide for your kids.

    thanks Michele.

36 Core Teacher Apps For Inquiry Learning With iPads - 2 views

  •  
    Scroll down to the second image. I like the way the apps are arranged to interface with the phases of inquiry from the teacher's and student's points of view.
  •  
    Very cool and something I'm sure we can develop for ourselves in due course.
  •  
    I would suggest picking one or two in each category - it is not about using all the different apps, but in finding the ones that work for you for your purpose.

Osfoora HD Review - iPad Twitter client > Article > MobilityMinded - 1 views

  •  
    So- I always shied away from Twitter and did not realize that the most useful way to use it would be for gathering information about a question or for following real time stories/news as it unfolds. Yesterday I went on to Twitter and put in #irene and it was amazing to see people commenting from South Carolina to New Jersey. I currently have the Twitter app for iPad but might switch and will let you know how I like it.
