Did you receive a gift of a new iPad this year? If so, you’re probably spending this holiday vacation week trying out all kinds of new apps. Here are ten that I recommend getting started with. http://ipadapps4school.com/2012/12/26/10-great-apps-for-a-teachers-new-ipad/
The iPad is such a boon in education. It is making a slow but steadfast revolution in the way instruction is both delivered and received. Teachers Simple Guide on The Use of iPad in Education clearly manifests this transfrmation and provides tips on how educators can leverage the power of this device in educational settings.

The Top 17 Free Digital Storytelling Apps for The iPad ~ Educational Technology and Mobile Learning

One of the things that really excites me about the iPad is the ability of the students to show their learning. I am not talking about the end product here, I am talking about the act of learning that can be shown by students recording their processes. It is often about the student putting the information they have learnt into a context. It is this contextualisation that helps the students create meaning. Here is a perfect example from a young 1st grade student who talks us through his investigation into transport. This example was shown on a recent school visit as one way a student could document their own learning. http://appsineducation.blogspot.com/2012/10/10-apps-for-documenting-learning.html

A Parent's Guide to Educational iPad Games

http://ipadeducators.ning.com/profiles/blogs/a-parent-s-guide-to-educational-ipad-apps Partially excerpted from the new book, " iPads in Education for Dummies " by Sam Gliksman In between repeatedly imploring my youngest son to turn off the XBox, iPad, his mother's iPhone and every other device we have around the house, I get the occasional flashback to when I was his age. In my flashback, it's a weekday and the time is somewhere around 5pm. I've just come home from school and I'm glued to the 17th repeat of an episode of Get Smart or Gilligan's Island.

The iPad as a research tool

I’ve spent a lot of time on this blog lately reflecting on Big Education ideas. During that time, my little buddy the iPad has felt a little neglected and unloved. So I thought I’d get back to talking about everybody’s “favourite little tablet that could”.

New & Noteworthy Educational Apps, May 2012

I’ve been weighing whether or not to re-institute a new monthly feature here, something that I used to write for MindShift : a post highlighting some of the new and updated educational apps that have been released over the past 30 days or so. I say “or so” here as this is the first time doing this in about six months, and I’m including below a few apps that were updated in late April rather than in May. Clearly this isn’t an exhaustive list of new apps – it’s “some” of them. I’ve picked 7. Move the Turtle Remember Logo ?
