App Task Challenges for Teachers | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it
From learninginhand.com - January 11, 2014 9:10 PM

Craig Badura, a PK-12 Integration Specialist in Aurora, Nebraska, has
developed a series of App Task Challenges. Each Challenge is a an easy to follow guide that gives teachers the opportunity to create products with an app.

Beth Dichter's insight:

If you have iPads in your school and teachers need help with apps check out these "App Task Challenges" created by Craig Badura. Currently four are available and you may download them here. Learn about these apps for the iPad: Camera, Popplet and Skitch plus there is an App Smash Challenge you might undertaken. In addition Darin Spenser was inspired by Badura's work and has created on on Stick Around. These handouts could also be modified to use with students. All are available on this website.

"In the Digital Classroom, teachers have many opportunities to design flexible and engaging student-driven learning experiences that allow them to create. Adopting this style of teaching and learning can be overwhelming, especially when being expected to embrace new technology and also implement the Common Core Standards at the same time."

Beth Dichter's insight:

If you are looking for some apps that help address Common Core Standards this post will help you out. Below are the apps listed with a short description of how you might use them...but more information is available when you click through to the post.

* Popplet + Common Core Mastery - Have students write a script that address content and Common Core standards

* ThingLink Mobile - Take an image and tag it with video and text and share

* Pixntell - Select your images, add narration and a video will be created which you may share...special effects also available

* Educreations - An app that turns your iPad into a recordable whiteboard. Have students create tutorials, presentations and more

* ShowMe - Another app that allows you to record voice while using your iPad as a whiteboard

Students love to create, and these apps are tools that allow students to be creative and address Common Core standards.
