Sites for Using iPads in Education

Following an iPad in Education workshop led by Meg Wilson (@iPodsibilities on Twitter) that was held at Apple last week, I asked an Apple employee to share with me useful materials for follow up.


Here are the sites that were suggested:

  4. Educators can also use a combination of Reeder and Evernote. I use this to fuel myself up with information so I can make new blog posts about my gaming site and food blogs. :)

  6. These sites are great. I would also check out TCEA's list (https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AvFbfb1mWoNwdGlweWtkZkFRS1gzUDMtTUtoTEw0MkE&hl=en&authkey=COnNtvwO#gid=0) and Apptivities.org.

    I also have a list of HOT Apps for HOTS (including task cards and lessons), a 5 Part iPad series for Educators (including iPad Lessons), and podcasts for educators separated by content area @ http://techchef4u.wordpress.com/
