12 Apps for Christmas


These are not, as the title might suggest, Christmas apps but I am going to try to limit myself to 12 apps that I suggest you check out over the Christmas break. With this lot of apps I am going to focus on those that best complement 'flipping the classroom' and paperless homework. I might even sneak in a couple that are not actual apps but are web browser based programs that work on iOS devices - some are both. I also stick to the free version of each of these resources.

In no particular order:
Edmodo (both)
Kidblog (both)
Padlet (web)
GoClass (both)
Blendspace (web)
ActivelyLearn (web)
inklewriter (web)
GoogleDrive (both)
BaiBoard HD (app)
Capture (app)
YouTube (both)
Educreations (both)

My Vision

I was thinking about how I see the place of the iPad, and technology in general, at KPS and the best way I could think of to represent it was a mind map. My role as the ICT teacher and as the iPad coordinator are so different. My thinking is, when teaching students ICT, the technology skills are an important part along with teaching students what they can do with technology and how technology can help them develop solutions. iPads can certainly be part of this as a form of technology. When using iPads in classrooms, the focus should be on the content and pedagogy with technology presenting opportunities for creation and engagement. The students are being taught content, they are being taught how to think and learn and they are being shown that the iPad is a very useful tool for doing these things and for helping them articulate and present what they have learned.

Collaboration

As I have mentioned before, we use a shared model when it comes to using iPads at KPS. While we have tried out various ways of sharing the devices, we currently have a set in every class. At the moment this set is smaller than we would like but we are in the process of purchasing quite a few more iPads so that we we will have enough to share 1 iPad to 3 students in every classroom which, in my opinion will be ideal.

Many teachers across the school have achieved the 'shift in thinking' needed to be using iPads effectively to enhance learning and achieve higher order thinking skills. These teachers see the iPad as a fantastic, engaging, motivating, extremely versatile tool but also use a range of tools in their programs. These are the pedagogy first, technology second teachers. Not all teachers have achieved this and some are still trying to work iPads into their lessons.

While the focus should definitely be on how the iPads are used and not on the number of iPads, I believe the lower student to iPad ratio will make the planning and operational side easier. I am excited that we will be going into 2014 with this arrangement and I can't wait to see the small group collaboration happening across the school.

At this point we are looking into trialling a BYOD 1:1 program in some upper primary classes in 2015 but we have no plans to introduce 1:1 in junior primary. Students involved in the 1:1 trial will be encouraged to bring whatever tablet style device they have.

Web Tools

Some of the tools I have been using most on the iPad are Web Based Tools. Just some of my favourites are QR Voice, Actively Learn, Blendspace and many of the resources available at classtools.net.

QR Voice is an excelled tool for generating short, audio QR Codes - great for providing a repeat of the instructions for a station during rotations. 

I also like to use the browser version of Edmodo as it allows more options.

Blogging in the classroom

The concept of literacy education has changed as technology has evolved. It is no longer enough to teach students how to read books and write on paper. This won’t adequately prepare them for their 21st century lives. Blogging is an authentic way to teach both traditional reading, writing, speaking and listening, as well as multi-modal 21st century skills. I think a class blog is an excellent way to set homework that is more relevant to what you are learning in class than a photocopied sheet of paper. Online conversations are far more valuable. Getting parents on board with the younger students or weaker readers is important but these students are not  any better off with the traditional photocopied worksheet. There is also the option of posting or linking to teacher made video or audio explaining tasks or concepts.

Digital Storytelling

Digital storytelling is a fantastic way for students to present all different types of information. Narratives, retells and text adaptions can all be presented digitally. The planning and editing are still a major party the project.

What I think is an even more valuable use of digital storytelling is the presentation of research. One fun way this can be presented is through an interview using PuppetPals. Imagine an interview with Ned Kelly with Glenrowan as the background. Students would need to come up with good interview questions as well as the answers.

While digital storytelling has been around for a long time, using various computer programs, it has never been easier than with an iPad. 

Just some of the excellent apps for digital storytelling include PuppetPals, Toontastic, Book Creator, SonicPics, Strip Designer, Little Story Maker, iFunFace, Tellagami, I can Animate, Stop Motion, iMovie, Comic Book, Little Bird Tales and so many more.

Teaching in the 21st Century

At KPS we are focussing a lot on what it means to be teaching in the 21st century. A lot of the PL I have presented recently has been around the idea of inquiry based learning, Challenge Based Learning and Global Ed. With this type of student centred learning we are really looking at the iPad as revolutionary tool that provides that 'anywhere, anytime' learning. Below are links to Keynotes that show how some of the ideas were presented.

Paperless?


The concept of a paperless classroom is still just a concept for me and requires 1:1 devices. While I embrace all forms of technology and am very open to new possibilities, I guess I am just old fashioned enough to still like to see students writing in classrooms, sometimes. Even if this writing is the planning of a fantastic digital presentation they are creating.

I do, however, believe homework can be paperless. With the option of various blogging platform (my personal preference to use with students are Kidblog for the younger students and Edmodo for the older students) paperless homework is a real option. Blendspace is another excellent option and, even better, you can create a task or series of tasks on Blendspace and then put the link on the blog. The work you create on Blendspace can include links, Educreation videos you have made, movies, photos, readings, quizzes and more. Students can work through this at their own pace.

Another great option for paperless homework, in my opinion, is Study Ladder. This allows you to create differentiated groups and set tasks at the level you choose.

Imagine the photocopying you will save which will help your photocopy budget and the environment. Of course you will still need to provide paper copies to some students but a recent survey revealed over 90% of students have access to a computer and internet at home.

Skitch

Skitch is a free app that I have blogged about before. It has many uses in the classroom but the two uses I believe to be the best are labelling of photos and blurring photos. Labelling photos is fairly self explanatory and can be used in all learning areas. Blurring photos is useful if you have a great photo that contains a student or object that shouldn't be in the photo for its intended use. Eg. If you have a photo that you want to publish online but you don't want to show student faces, blurring can be very useful.

Stop Motion and Claymation

I have been having a play with stop motion and claymation lately and it so much fun! For stop motion  I have tried several different things including Lego, paper cut outs and writing on a whiteboard. So many everyday objects work well. For claymation I have used play dough. I even let some students have a turn last week! With very little instruction they came up with sone quite good results. Actually my plan is to do claymation with the junior classes next term. I will have them plan and then storyboard thier idea before they start taking photos. There are a lot of resources online that show ways to use both stop motion and claymation in the classroom.

Here is a link to one of the sites I found but there are so many more:

Claymation and Stop Motion in the Classroom

The apps I have used are Stop Motion and iCanAnimate. Both of these apps can be exported to the camera roll to add more effects in iMovie.

My Current Favourite Apps

It's been a while so I thought it might be timely to blog about my current favourite apps. Many of them are the same but I have added more fun creation apps, some that complete a workflow with the publishing stage and some that encourage collaboration. Below are screen shots of the apps that I use most frequently. Of course there are heaps more that I find very useful.

Two Free Literacy Apps

I haven't posted about free content based apps for quite a while. There are a couple of reasons for that. My first and main reason is that I think at KPS we have more than enough content based apps now and definitely should be focusing on the creation apps. The other main reason is that with fantastic apps like TinyTap, Zondle, Book Creator, Explain Everything and so many others, teachers from all year groups can create content that is better than any ready made app because it is differentiated and contains exactly what they what to teach. My final reason is that if a teacher wants to find an app for particular content they are better off finding it for themselves.

Having said all of that I am including two literacy apps today that are currently free. These are both fun apps that would be suitable for extension.

Wordly is a Boggle style app in which you have to use available letters to make as many words as you can.

The other is Hollow Words which is a Catch Phrase style game.



Monday 9 September 2013

Animoto

Animoto is a wonderful way to make learning interesting and fun for students. It is an ideal tool for creating videos and presentations. It takes just minutes to create a video which can bring your lessons to life.
Students can easily use Animoto to make dynamic presentations from photos. It is another app that is also browser based. Simply create a free account, create your slideshow and select one of the many ways to share.


Thursday 5 September 2013

Snapguide

Snapguide is a free app which allows a teacher or student to create easy how-to guides on their iPad and make them available through a web link. Snapguide incorporates text, images, and videos to put together a slide-show style guide on any topic. 

Teachers could create review guides for math problems or have students create step-by-step guides outlining a science experiment. The ability to have students be able to storyboard and explain something through a step-by-step process is an invaluable skill.

What are some of the possible uses of Snapguide in Education?


    •     Create Snapguides for students on a new app you will be using in class.
    •     Students can use Snapguide to develop a procedure.
    •     Create Snapguides in Physical Education to introduce new skills.
    •     School Admins create to demonstrate processes they want followed.
    •     Teachers create Snapguides on how to solve certain problems.
    •     Science teachers could create Snapguides to prepare students for labs.

The possibilities with this app are endless in a school setting!  All you need to do is download the app, create your account and get to "Snapguiding" today! Once created the lessons are uploaded to the website and can be emailed or, of course, linked to a QR Code.

Aurasmas continued ...

To share Auras across iPads you can search for the public channel on the other iPads and then Follow it.

Aurasmas

Aurasmas are fantastic for the classroom for many reasons and in many ways. Apart from providing a creative way to showcase student work at events such as Parent Open Night, it is another way to link instructional videos to an item. One problem with Aurasmas is that, as they are not uploaded to a website, they exist on the iPad originally used to make them. 

It is possible to share Auras across iPads by creating an account but it doesn't always go smoothly. I have got it to work by creating a public channel first and then creating the Aura within the channel. You then search for the channel on the other iPads and follow the channel once you have found it.

A brainstorming "Creative thinking" tool : you can use it to trigger creative thinking in a workspace that can be expanded , recording class notes , or the generated ideas in a brainstorming session.

Project Based Learning  : popplet can be used for group work, with the ability to add elements like pictures it is an effective platform for project based learning.

- Storytelling: Timelines will mutlimedia can be used to tell a story.

Summarizing : Students can summarize ideas from a book they read in the classroom, teachers can also present the main ideas of a lesson.

Organizing: Mind map is also a great way to organize thoughts from a brain stroming session.

- ScrapBook/ School or class photo albums /Posters : popplet final projects can be exported as JPG or PDF files and you can also print it.

Introducing/ presenting new topics.

- Differentiation / Visual learners.

-  Planning for a unit 

Homework and assignment : Print it, or use it online and fill in the blank.

- Feedback with comments

- Phonics: word banking of phonic sounds

Cut Me In

I really like this app and not just for fun. It is a really simple way for students to do a quick report on a location. And, of course, it can just be part of a much larger ePub. Here I have combined it with Strip Designer to add some speech bubbles etc.

Favourite Apps For Publishing

Here are some of my favourite apps that can be saved to the camera roll and used in an ePub or iMovie. This is just a few of the obvious ones and there are so many more but there is so much you can do with just these apps.

Sunday 25 August 2013

Zondle

Zondle is a program that enables teachers to create games to match exactly their teaching aims and their students’ learning needs. It is a browser based program that is free to use and free to join. Teachers create a membership and classes in the browser based version. The Zondle app is also free and students can use this on an iPad to log in to their class and play the games. 

Basically, teachers create a set of questions (multiple choice, true/false or short answer) and students select which game they would like to use to answer these questions.

Teachers and students can also search topics to look for questions already provided by other users. Teachers can set tasks for students and students go straight to these tasks by going to the correct folder. Zondle has some pretty cool resources for teachers. There is a Team Play section that is designed for the whole class to use on the IWB.

The website can be found here.

More About QR Codes

Okay it has taken a while but QR Codes have really taken off at our school. Yes, they are old news but still a fantastic way to motivate students. There are so many different ways to use them in the classroom. On my Pinterest that is linked from this Blog I have a Board just about QR Codes and Aurasmas.

One really cool way to use QR Codes is to link movies to them. This could be instructions for a task, an introduction to a lesson, a movie students have made, a challenge or a fun way to send a message. The movie They are a range of ways you can link a movie to a QR Code and, believe me, I have tried most of them. Here is the one I have found the easiest.

You need a GoogleDocs Account and the GoogleDrive all on your iPads. You can link anything from the camera roll, so any creation that has been sent to the camera roll. 
Step 1. Sign into your GoogleDocs account in GoogleDrive on each iPad
Step 2. Sign into you GoogleDocs account on a desktop or laptop
Step 3. Upload your movie in GoogleDrive on the iPad, select the expand arrow next to your movie and rename it. 
Step 4. Go to your computer and find your movie in your Drive or in Recents and tick the box.
Step 5. Select the share icon at the top (the little person with the plus).
Step 6. Change the Privacy setting to Anyone with this link.
Step 7. Copy the URL link from the box.
Step 8. Open you QR Code created program. I use www.qrstuff.com when I am on a computer
Step 9. Make sure the Data Type in the list on the left has Website URL selected and paste your link.
Step 10. Select a colour for your QR Code and select Download QR Code. You can then save this to your computer as an image to do as you want with.

Most of these steps can be completed in a slightly different way on an iPad. I just find it smoother on a computer because it is far easier to copy the link and I figure you need to be on a computer to print it anyway.

Edmodo

Edmodo is a Web 2.0 tool that allows teachers to safely share ideas, files, assignments, videos, projects, etc.with students and with other teachers in real time. It is a browser based program and it is also a free app. Edmodo on the iPad is more limited in what can be uploaded but photos, movies from the camera roll can be. It is a safe and secure social learning site for classrooms. Edmodo does not require student email addresses and only the people who have the group code can see the students.
The teacher must first register (for free). Then they can create a group or groups for their class. Students will then register and use the teacher’s code to join that class. On the front page of Edmodo, there is a video: What is Edmodo? Spend a few minutes reviewing this video before signing up.
Edmodo can be found at www.edmodo.com and the app can be found at The App Store
Here are many things teachers and students can do with Edmodo 
1. Post assignments for students. Edmodo allows teachers to attach files to assignment announcements. If there is a file your students need in order to complete an assignment, they can access it at the same place they view the announcement.

2. Create digital libraries. Students and teachers can create digital libraries for housing their important files. No need to keep track of USB drives because you can access your files from any Internet-connected computer.

3. Post messages on the "wall." This allows students to ask questions of each other and their teacher. Teachers, of course, can post messages for all students to read.

4. Create learning groups. Teachers can create groups of their students according to the courses they teach or create groups of students who are supposed to be working together.

5.  Post polls for students. Use the polls to gather informal feedback on a question like, "do you feel prepared for next week's quiz?"

6. Post a quiz for students to take. You can attach links and files to each question and answer choice. This allows you to post a document and ask students to read and respond to it. Quizzes can be in multiple choice, trufalse, fill in the blank, or short answer form. You can allow students to see their scores immediately or you can disable that option.

7. Connect with other teachers. Join discussion groups to share ideas about lesson plans, teaching strategies, and project development. Discuss tools and content that you use.

8. Create a calendar of events and assignments.

9. Access Edmodo through the free app on an iPad.

10. Turn in assignments. Students can upload assignments for their teachers to view and grade. Teachers can annotate the assignments directly in Edmodo.

11. Create parent accounts. Teachers can create parent accounts. Parent accounts allow parents to see their children's assignments and grades. Teachers can also send alerts to parents about school events, missed assignments, and other important messages through Edmodo.

12. Generate printable class rosters. If you're going to have a substitute teacher in your classroom who needs a printed roster, you can print one from your Edmodo account.

13. Embed videos, images, and audio clips into your wall to spark a class discussion online.


Publishing with iPads

Most people know by now that I am a huge fan of any creation app in which the creation can be sent to the camera roll. This is because it can then be sent anywhere. There are several options for publishing once the creation is turned into a movie or still image in the camera roll. Just some of those options are:
Use photo stream to share with another device
Plug the iPad into a computer without iTunes and get photos off as with a camera
Use iTunes
Use a camera connection to share with another iPad
Create an ePub such as with Book Creator - this can then be sent to iBooks.
Compile creations into an iMovie and send to camera roll ......
Upload to YouTube, Vimeo, GoogleDocs, Edmodo

I will post more information on some of these methods in future posts.

QR Codes

There are so many amazing ideas for creating QR Codes on-line. You just have to Google it! Here is the link to one scavenger hunt lesson idea, complete with reflection. This teacher used the website www.classtools.net to create the codes. This website also includes some other great resources such as Fakebook and FakeSMS. Imagine getting to create a Facebook page that Paddy Hannan, Captain Cook or a first settler might have. You can also create fake messages between 2 people - how about between Captain Arthur Phillip and Captain James Cook (yes I know he was dead) but imagine the conversation that would have taken place when Phillip realised Botany Bay......

  • Good Evening Cook, dear fellow. It seems, my good fellow, that this Botany Bay leaves a bit to be desired in the old settlement area. What says you my good man?
  • Oh dear, my good man. Maybe you need to toughen up a bit!
Now that's fun! Anyway back to the lesson idea I mentioned.

Screen casting

I have blogged before about screen casting or whiteboard type apps. I am talking about those apps you can add photos to, draw with and record voice. My two favourites are Educreations (which is free) and Explain Everything. I love these apps because they are so versatile. Just a couple of ways I like to use them are:
for assessment - You can set a student a math problem and record their working out as they go. Record two students solving a problem and her the language they use
and to help struggling students with concepts in maths - record yourself doing a lesson on the app and the student an play it over and over.

I like Educreations because it is simple to use as it doesn't have heaps of buttons etc. The limitation with this one is you can't save creations/lessons to the camera roll. Much like Show Me they get uploaded to cyber space. By creating and logging into the same account on each iPad you can easily share what you have made and what your students have made with each other.

The great thing about Explain Everything is that you can upload to the camera roll and then publish creations. The trouble is it has a lot more buttons and is confusing for younger students.

There is another app that has an interface more like Educreations but can be uploaded to the camera roll. Vittle is a bit expensive but the free version is worth checking out.

Augmented Reality

Yesterday I started a lesson with a class in which the students are working in groups to create iMovies about early explorers. The guidelines they have are to include important information and the movie needs to be less than 45 seconds long. This is to keep their movies succinct.

They will then be using Aurasma to create an aura from their movie, using a photo of the explorer as the trigger. As a stimulus and to introduce them to Augmented Reality I used the ColarMix app on the IWB. It worked very well. Of course they all wanted to do a colouring but it got the ball rolling. I then showed them the Captain Cook Aurasma I had created to make things a bit more relevant but I feel that the stimulus got them interested and I am excited to show them how to use Aurasma when they are finished.

Kids Discover Galaxy - Free App

Definitely worth checking out. It is the third app of the Kids Discover series that is currently free in the App Store.

Augmented Reality

On the subject of augmented reality, why not have your students create their own set of flashcards using Aurasma. Print out letters for them to colour or have them draw or paint a letter and use it as a trigger. Record a short video of the child talking about things that start with that letter, or showing pictures, or acting out an animal (so many options I won't list them all) and voila!


Of course why stop there? How about having them create their name and link to an iMovie that shows their favourite things.

Augmented Reality ABC Flashcards for Kids

Another really cool FREE app. This one definitely has some educational value. All you have to do is download the free flashcardsprint them in colour and use the free app. When you open the app press "get started" and it opens a camera viewer. Place one or more of the cards in view of the camera and watch the magic happen. When you touch the screen on top of the animal or card it also tells you the letter name and animal.

Bugsy Kindergarten Reading School is a simple ask and answer app that provides a lot of external motivation for young learners. Children collect stars which build up to earning coins which can be used to buy fun stuff to use in the app. This is a good app for the child who needs extra practice with phonics and will work longer and harder with this kind of app.

TinyTap

I came across TinyTap some time ago and could see that it had huge potential in education. I had a play with it but admittedly couldn't get it to do what I wanted. Yesterday my 10 year old daughter was looking at my iPad and spent 5 minutes on the app and managed to create what I was trying for. I quickly swallowed my pride and had her show me how and together we discovered even more features. Turns out it's very easy and I don't know how I missed it but the possibilities, with this app, are limitless. I should mention now that, as with most of my favourite apps, TinyTap is FREE!!

Here are some things you can do:

Games
    Create educational games from everyday photos, drawings or text. If you are looking for an app that allows you to differentiate - this is it! This app allows for a personalized and specialized teaching experience for children of all ages and capabilities.

    Stories

    Tell stories and record questions for each page to keep students involved in the story.

    Photo Albums

    Organize photos into playable albums and add voice tags.



The basic function of the app is that by adding spoken questions to a photograph and highlighting the answer, touch-screen games can be quickly and effortlessly produced and linked to any subject imaginable. It definitely has amazing potential for students with additional needs as well as students who have English as an additional language or dialect. This is another app that you need to play with to find out just how you could use it. But there is a link below to a YouTube clip that shows how to use it, or you could let your child play and then ask him/her how to do it.
