We received an email a few days ago from a teacher asking about a good iPad app for creating simulated TV shows with students. The apps we suggest below are both from Launchpad Toys which have been acquired by Google a couple of months ago. These are probably among the most popular apps among teachers and educators. Students can use them to unleash their creativity and delve into a world of imagination creating scenes, designing characters, animating cartoons and telling their own stories through beautifully recorded shows.

Information technology has value because it can support and extend human capability, but its value also depends on people. People make IT work, hence our organizations’ focus on professional development. We work with first-time managers. We work with seasoned professionals. Moreover, as technology changes, as issues ebb and flow, and as institutional directions are refined, the profession and its needs change. Our roles, responsibilities, and competencies must adapt as well. No matter what the issue, we must develop people and their potential.

I have been exploring sketch-noting and brain-doodling lately and thought it would be a great vehicle my students to think, process, and organize information. I started off with a class discussion and asking my students what they find challenging about note-taking. Many of them shared that they found it hard to keep up with the speaker, and others said that they sometimes wrote so furiously that they couldn't understand their own handwriting when it came time to study for the tests. Others shared how they found it difficult to make sense of their notes. Sketch-noting seemed a great way to address some of these issues. Introducing it through sample images of sketchnoting from Google images and sites like Sketchnote Army was a great way to start. For more tutorials and ideas of places to start with doodling, I went to Brain Doodles. Via John Evans

An education blog whose authors believe there’s too much hype around “personalized learning” technology has posted a series of video case studies about the trend, hoping to help get beyond overheated rhetoric. The result is an unusual look at five colleges trying high-tech classroom experiments and wrestling with how new teaching methods change the role of students and teachers. The videos were produced by the education-technology blog e-Literate, with the support of a $350,000 grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The case studies, divided into short segments covering different topics, together resemble a MOOC. That’s no accident, says Michael Feldstein, founder of the blog and a host of the videos, who hopes that some teaching-with-technology centers will use the videos in their professional-development workshops.
