(Summer) Assignment #5: One Transformed Classroom

Everyone found some really useful articles and blogs for Assignment #3.  We highly recommend that you go back and check some of them out.  Brian E. found the video below that features a classroom that uses the iPads from opening to closing bell.  Watch the video and then think about what it would be like if you had more than one iPad in your classroom.  In your comment to this post, write up a daily schedule (or weekly schedule if you are in HS and teach the same course throughout the day) for your classroom and describe how you would incorporate the iPads in each activity.

(Summer) Assignment #4: This would be great if....

All of us have found apps that are great, but don't quite fit into our curriculum.  For this post, please share an app for a subject that you don't teach, but you would definitely use if you did. In your comment, please put the name of the app, the cost, a brief description, and how you think you would use it. 

Reminder: summer assignments are due on August 16th.
