Great Ipad Resource for Teachers


Recently, I was chosen to be one of a handful of teachers who will be rolling out our school's use of iPads. Each teacher who participates will receive a cart of 30 iPads to use with their students. I have been playing with my assigned iPad to learn how I will use it in the classroom. It has been hard to fully plan how I will use the iPads with my students since I have no idea when I will receive my class set...perhaps next month? 

Over the past few weeks, I have been researching how other teachers are using iPads in the classroom. I have come across many resources, but I would like to share two of the better ones.

1. iPad As: This simply created website breaks down the apps for the iPad based upon the goals of a teacher. I like the format of this website and the nifty descriptions of each app (including in some cases tips and pros/cons).

2. AP iPad Presentation: This website is similar to the former, though it is geared more towards AP teachers. Nevertheless, ANY teacher will be able to find and discover great apps for their students. 

If you have any iPad apps you consider "must haves" for a teacher, please share!
