| Good tools I would recommend from this list: |
| 3. Educreations -- allows you to record a lesson. It's good, except that it does not import/export from/to dropbox. See my post on this type of tool: recording-lesson-on-your-ipad. 4. Google Search -- yes. If fact, this app gives you access to all Google Apps (mail, calendar, docs, etc), in addition to search 6. Quick Graph -- graphic calculator. 18. Kindle -- book reader from Amazon. 22. Dragon Dictation -- current best speech recognition technology; works well for some. |
These tools I do not know, but I prefer having ideas and task list in the same place as my other information. For me, that place is either Google Docs or Evernote. |
| 8. Lino -- brainstorming 21. Wunderlist -- task list |
| These apps are content, rather than tools: |
| 2. TED talks -- awesome, on iPad, on your computer, anywhere. 9. NASA app -- looks neat; I have not played with it. 11. History pin -- awesome. 13. Science360 -- looks neat; I have not played with it. 17. Free Books -- good collection of free books. There are many others. |
| These seem to be geared at earlier grades: |
| 5. Math Quizzer 7. Today in History Lite 10. Puppet Pals 12. Project Noah 14. Toontastic 15. Red Stamp 19. Era of Dino Lite |
| No knowledge or opinion: |
| 16. Virtuoso Piano 19. Flashcardlet 23. How Stuff Works |
Incidentally, the site (simplek12.com) contains good info and the associated blog is worth reading.
