"‘Tis the season for final exams! If ever there was a time to take advantage of all tools imaginable to help your students get the best grades possible, it is now. Fortunately, the app market has exploded with useful assistance, and here are some of the best apps I recommend to help your students study better and learn faster:" By Josh Sears Via Tom D'Amico (@TDOttawa)

"Students attempting to text in class might be the bane of teachers everywhere, but even the most jaded luddite would have to admit: Tablets and smartphones in the classroom bring a number of advantages too. From greater student engagement to an expansion of the learning environment beyond normal school hours, gadgets can open new educational doors. But hardware is only part of the puzzle. You also need the right software to spool up those eager young minds.
That’s where these come in. From creating lesson plans and keeping attendance, to behavior records and communicating with students outside the classroom, these apps let teachers harness tech instead of fighting it. Knowing, it turns out, really is half the battle." Via Tom D'Amico (@TDOttawa) , John Evans

The power of technology can not only be used inside the classroom, but also outside of it in order to achieve a fruitful communication between the parts (teachers-students). The tools named in this article are great options for those teachers who want to be in touch with their students all the time... Send materials or information about next classes and so on, since they are specifically designed for that. Yeah! Teachers can communicate their ideas and thoughts in the target language, and students will make an effort to use that language as well. Like that, the communicative practice will not be reduced to the two or three class hours inside the institution.

Garage Band is an excellent program for the classroom. I have found that it develops social and personal capability in students without requiring a lot of skill. With so many different tracks, recordings, beats to choose from students can put together a whole song (that sounds great!) just on the computer. It makes them feel like a music producer. The end product is so satisfying for students. You can upload your creations using the Garage Band app to other platforms - Facebook, Soundcloud or Youtube. Students could create an online portfolio of music they have produced using Garage Band.

I'll have to try a few of these - I personally have used 'GuitarToolkit' consistently for years now; both as a musician and an educator. The simplicity of Garage Band makes it a fantastic educational tool.

Thats a great idea. Garage band is awesome. You could also let students focus on one instrument each and get them to collaborate on tracks. These could be uploaded on the cloud for students to track the progress and then used as samples for others in the future.

I would like the concept of using ICT to showcase students work in a more engaging way - I think this would be a valuable addition to the 'mini-unit'
