Many teachers have said that they need more apps on the iPads. I would like for all teachers to consider that open ended apps allow students to create, modify, and show synthesis of information. I read many educational blogs daily and found this quote from: Diane Darrow (click to see this post on the Edutopia blog)
Does the app you want let the students…….
1. Construct designs?
2. Generate possibilities?
3. Compose ideas?
4. Propose hypotheses?
5. Produce solutions?
6. Brainstorm solutions?
7. Design products?
8. Assemble plans?
9. Re-arrange operations?
10. Imagine possibilities?
I love her list of must haves for apps. Check out her blog for some apps she loves!
