10 iPad Essentials for Photographers | iPad.AppStorm | iPad learning | Scoop.it

"I have owned an iPad for quite some time now, and found it to be an excellent tool for both amateur photographers like myself and professionals alike. Sure, an iPad will never be able to replace a computer for serious photo editing (well, for me, anyway,) but I feel that it has definitely earned a place in the discerning photographers kit bag."

Practical Edu Tech: iPad as a content creation tool...are you mad?!

We are in the middle of an iPad mini trial at school at the moment and I was on a learning walk last week observing how our students are integrating them into their lessons. I had a strange, but enlightening experience in a Food Technology lesson that I observed.

Paul Hamilton has shared another great app that can take your handwriting of numbers and equations into digital text. Here is just a few comments that Paul made when testing it out: "I’ve only tested it with my finger, not a stylus, but the app has no difficulty understanding my rather large and somewhat messy scrawl. The calculator works just as well for basic computation as it does for more complex mathematics."

 

A video is including that shows how it is used on an Android.

 

Thank you Paul for introducing this great app that can level the playing field!
