iPad+Apps

=Is this a good App for your classroom?=

This is be an experimental hands-on session where we explore a variety of iPad applications that have been recommended by educators, some from international schools.

Some of the questions we may explore are:
 * For schools that already have 1:1 programs, how would students benefit from iPads?
 * How can we evaluate an application? What are the criteria?
 * What would work in your school and why? What may not work?
 * What may be the future of iPads in your school?

Some of the apps we will explore are:

[|Sock puppets] [|photo sync] [|comic life] [|whiteboard] iMovie - good for school trips iNote lite [|Frog Dissection] [|Video Physics] Kindle reader: good for highlighting words as these then save to your Kindle Account (highlights) Evernote [|Garageband]

iNote - records Blue
