New iPad App May Be The Future Of Collaborative Online Learning
One of the biggest problems many people have with Khan Academy and YouTube Edu is simply the format. It’s not the fault of Khan or YouTube … it’s just that the passive video format is just that. It’s passive. Khan and others are introducing more interactive technology that acts as an added level of learning to the lessons but no one has nailed it quite yet. A San Francisco-based startup called Net Power & Light Inc. wants to change that. Net’s software is called ‘ Spin ‘ which essentially turns passive video watching into interactive group learning. Right now, Spin lets you remix and interact with content from Harvard, Stanford, TED, and the National Geographic Channel. “Teachers felt web-based learning wasn’t giving them the full experience,” Tara Lemmey, Net Power & Light’s co-founder and chief executive officer, said in an interview. So How’s It Work? The App Screenshot The Spin software lets you, like any video player, fast-forward, rewind, skip chapters, and pause videos. Get The App
New Presentation Tool Lets You Easily Keep Students Engaged
From Prezi to Google Docs to PowerPoint , there’s no shortage of ways for teachers to put together a dynamic presentation. But Klowd wanted to take a different approach to help improve the presentation experience for both the person at the front of the classroom and in the back row. SlideKlowd is now available for your classroom and it could be the much-needed tool you’ve been looking for. It’ll wake up your students and get them engaged and interacting with the lesson. Personally, I think this is the type of stuff we’ll be seeing in TED talks in the very near future. At least, we should see it there. So what are the features of SlideKlowd aside from the misspelled name? “There are some fantastic tools out there to help create great presentations, but they don’t address the core of the presentation issue, the skills and engagement capabilities of the presenter or teacher. ” says Ken Holsinger, Klowd.com’s Founder and CEO. Will it work?

4 Whiteboard Apps for Creating Math Videos
Each month students will be engaged in creating at least one mini-video on a common core math standard that we are applying in our lessons. These videos will be posted to their Edublogs digital portfolio. The ability for students to publish work for their teacher, parents, peers, and the public to view increases the stakes in the quality and effort that is put forth. The iPad has four unique apps that students can use to create math videos. Educreations (Free) This app was mentioned in the first post, and will be our go-to app for creating videos. ShowMe (Free) This whiteboard app is similar to the one mentioned above, although the ability to insert text is missing. ScreenChomp (Free) The most plain version that still allows the user to feel in control with the ability to insert images and record any math problem as it is being worked out through the touch of a finger.

The App Store Nightmare « Andreas on Coding
Edit: The specific error message I was getting is a bug in the App Store relating to disabling SpotLight on your Mac. Once this was fixed, apps from my Swedish region again started updating on the machine, so it seems Apple Support’s claim about IP address limitations is bogus. Why would they say there is one though? I recently moved from Sweden to the US. Doing so made everything under “Purchases” and “Updates” disappear in the Mac App Store. So at this point I created another account, to be able to download US apps. Today however a new problem emerged as I tried to update Xcode (which is on my Swedish account.) Signing in to my US account, I’m greeted with the same dialog. Puzzled, I sent an email to the Mac App Store Support explaining I could no longer get updates for my apps, regardless of the account I used. Please know that since the app was purchase on your iTunes account in Sweden, you may not be able to update app, now that your IP address is in the US. To summarize: Like this:
50 Free Android Apps Being Used In Education Right Now
Added by Katie Lepi on 2012-10-10 I’ll admit it. I’m a fan of Apple products. But that doesn’t mean I don’t yearn for some of the fabulous features on Android phones too. Edudemic doesn’t cover Android as much as it deserves so this useful list should be a helpful start. I’ve searched around for each of these apps and found interesting stories on how most are being used in classrooms and education right now.
