“ In yesterday’s post we talked about three main ways students can demonstrate their learning that is through the creation of educational posters, videos and/or digital portfolios. There is also the possibility of creating creative animations as a way to communicate their thinking. To this end, we are sharing with you some of our favourite apps that student can use in class or at home to design beautiful animations.”

“ 6 Great Websites for Educators Using iPads in the Classroom - GAGGLE.NET | @scoopit http://sco.lt/...Despite news of Chromebooks surpassing iPads as the most popular devices sold to U.S. schools, iPads continue to play a very important role in K-12 education. It’s increasingly become more common for students to come to school with their own iPads, while other schools are implementing successful 1:1 programs. The goal of any device should be to fade into the background, allowing learning to always be in the forefront. Tailoring your curriculum to include devices such as iPads can have a positive impact on student engagement in the classroom and continued learning outside the classroom. When iPads are integrated effectively, the outcomes can be amazing. Bookmark these websites for some great tips.”

“If recent predictions are to be believed, the podcasting scene will explode in 2016. For me, that's great to hear because I am a big fan of podcasts, but it is also great news for teachers who are looking for new ways for their students to communicate their ideas and reach a global audience. So,…”

"Our high schoolers each have iPads, as do all instructors. During my second year at Thales, I taught two 9th grade humanities courses (ancient literature and ancient history). The freshmen were brand new to the iPad as their main tool of education, and I was equally new to the problems and successes of the iPad in the humanities classroom. The question remained: How to integrate the iPad into my classroom in way in which it was helpful and not a hindrance?" Via John Evans, Jenny Smith

Integrating Mobile Devices such as (iPads) into the classroom could be a challenge for traditional education. Knowing methods of implementing material and formatting a course using technology tools to facilitate the process is one of the many ways to transition into the paradigm shift in education. Many examples like this one can help instructors find out more ways to use this in their classroom.

I scooped this article because the opening paragraphs about perception pulled me in to read more about how digital storytelling could alter or change a perception. This article relates to today's events and circumstances within the general population and the school community. It also adds a element of empowerment for the students who are able to partake in the activity of digital storytelling as it's described in the article. The people who could best utilize the information in the article are those who work with secondary level students. I believe that this could be altered and utilized in almost any subject area classroom with a bit of creative thinking.

“ There are tons of iPad apps for making science learning fun and enjoyable. Over the past few years we have reviewed and recommended some excellent science apps for both teachers and students ( check out this page to see some examples). However, today we are particularly highlighting apps that approach science through 3D technologies and interactive simulations. Students can use these apps to virtually explore different scientific phenomena (e.g human body, brain anatomy…etc) through stunning and interactive 3D graphics and animation”
