There's An App For That

Staff:

I ran across some great information on iPad/iPod apps last night while reading an article on Common Core State Standards and wanted to share it with all staff. Even if you are not a teacher, you may have a child, grandchild, niece or nephew who has an iPod or iPad that could use this information:

·         For information on the Teacher section of the iTunes Store see

·         A list of apps (categorized by content area) is available at
http://appsineducation.blogspot.com/

·         Kathy Schrock’s online Guide for Educators contains a list of apps that support various levels of Bloom’s Taxonomy at
http://kathyschrock.net/ipadblooms/

I spent most of the evening on the 2^nd item.  There is enough information in that site alone to keep you busy for many hours.   

I would like to thank the educators who spent their time putting together this information. I hope you find this information helpful.
