Do I already have an app that does the same thing? Source: http://www.edtechmagazine.com/k12/article/2016/05/10-questions-ask-installing-new-educational-app
Editor's Notes
- #2: Welcome Introduction of presenters EARLY ADOPTERS - device was introduced 9 years ago (April 3, 2010 wifi; April 30 3G) In this presentation, we are going to examine how iPads can be used to foster future ready skills
- #3: Ask to download As downloading, explain that most every app we will be using today is free (or has a free version), or I got for free (which we will discuss how to get apps free at the end)
- #4: Turn on Scan QR Code Make sure Wi-Fi Set to @TCEA
- #5: OR Scan QR Code in Padlet App see Join choice? This backchannel is a way for you to submit questions in real time to the presenters, have an on-topic conversation with other participants during this session, or even continue the conversation afterwards. SCREEN SHARE & SHOW
- #6: Linked to Google Doc where we can all take notes together Scan, open with Safari, and will automatically open in Docs SCREEN SHARE & SHOW
- #7: Now that we have established a few procedures, I would like to pre-assess the group to get to know a little more about your learning needs Open PollEverywhere App and join this presentation
- #8: Primary Position https://www.polleverywhere.com/multiple_choice_polls/LTU5NDUxMTQyMg
- #9: iPad Usage https://www.polleverywhere.com/multiple_choice_polls/LTQyMjk3OTEw
- #10: Lets begin by establishing what future ready skills are These are the non-technical (soft) skills that will allow our students to achieve employability, entrepreneurship, and economic development
- #11: iPads can support the acquisition of these skills by providing: Accessibility and Personalized Learning Connectivity Alternatives for Communicating Knowledge Lets face it Education has traditionally been designed to be one size fits all But technology, such as the iPad, brings the ability to customize learners experiences and accommodate learners specific needs The iPads can provide connectivity by: Connecting learners to sources of knowledge AND Connecting them to other learners (which fosters collaboration) And why, continue to ask students to express themselves using the same uniform formats we have always used when we know many struggle with verbal expression and written composition AND when technology such as iPads can provide alternatives for communicating knowledge? So, lets look at some specific apps to assist us in these areas.
- #13: Knowledge Acquisition PBS Video (ex science & nature programming) PBS Kids Video (includes learning goals for shows; age 0-5) BrainPop (age 9-11) BrainPopJr (age 6-8) Ted (12+ all topics) Khan Academy (over 10K videos - math, science, economics, history, etc)
- #14: SCREEN SHARE & SHOW Ages 0-5, 8-12 Filtered Parental Controls
- #15: Lower Level Blooms - Exhibit memory of previously-learned materials by recalling facts, terms, basic concepts and answers Quizlet flascard & study tool, student or teacher create own or search by others IXL (Excel?), interactive questions for math and language arts Photomath read and solve math problems. - Math Papa is a similar app SCREEN SHARE & SHOW
- #16: Even though these apps tend to address the lower levels of blooms, the help the learner develop critical thinking and problem solving skills Share Connecting to Sources of Knowledge Apps MY OTHER SUGGESTIONS: Tiny Tap iTunesU
- #17: Connecting to other learners and collaboration on content

- #19: Share Collaboration Apps
- #20: That leads us to communication of knowledge and content creation iPads were initially criticized as being designed for consumption but had limited capacity for content creation. NOT ANYMORE The iPad NOW allows learners to be prolific producers of a wide variety of content to communicate their knowledge and understanding The iPad allows for the creation of content ranging from the production of static artifacts to interactive, augmented reality exhibits
- #22: WRITTEN COMPOSITION iAnnotate ($1.99-$9.99) read, mark up, and share PDF, DOC, PPT and image files! IMPORT: Connect with - cloud services - Box, Dropbox, Google Drive, Microsoft SkyDrive or WebDAV, use iTunes file sharing, or open PDFs directly from email or the Web.
