Tool 10 Exploring Mobile Technology and Apps-
ITouch, IPhone and IPad are the three pieces of techonolgy that this tools explores. These three pieces allow on the go learning.
Itouch , IPhone and IPad uses in education were the of the areas that I looked at. There are a number of ways ithey can be used, but the big one is it can be used as an internet device.
There is and Apple description of how to work these 3 pieces of technology. This page tells you just about everything you need to know about the capabilities of each.
There are many educational Apps in almost all academic areas. I even found one for Music Education. The other ones that I found interesting was Spanish Tutor 24/7, it gives you the word you are looking for and how to pronoun it. It will repeat it over and over.
I also found ABC Phonics and even Sign Language. The ABC Phonics would be good for elementary students. It reads words out loud and all has spelling practice. All of these Apps are free now, but it did say that the Sign Language is free for a limited time.
What a great tool to have that can work for many ages and grades. I have two boys so fortunately I have been able to work with all of them and they are amazing. We are very lucky to have them in the schools.
