Here are links to his presentation slideshow and an extremely extensive list of apps for the classroom. Seth began by saying that while the iPad is a wonderful device for consumers he questioned whether it was a creative tool. He noted that one benefit is the speed it turns on- I must agree I have appreciated this more and more over the past few weeks. Seth plans on using the iPad in the classroom this fall and envisions stations in Lower School classrooms. Apparently apps can be loaded on more than one iPad so it should not be cost prohibitive. While I haven’t fully explored his list of apps yet, he highlighted a few of them. He liked Storykit because you can create your own versions of stories. History:maps of the world seems to be a wonderful resource. He finished with a demo on Korg-ielectribe that is on sale for $9.99 until the end of July. He also showed us a couple of humorous videos about the iPad: Grandma’s Ipad commercial and David Letterman. Seth recommended Steve Dembo’s blog.
