Apps for the ipod


 * Technology Nuggets from Michigan World Language Association Conference 2011: **
 * (all of it is free, unless you want more memory/upgraded status) **


 * [|www.dabbleboard.com] -- ** kind of like SMART board technology, can take a picture and draw over it, can create drawings...


 * [|google talk] : ** a function of google where you can obtain a new (free) phone number, and students/parents can call or even text you messages. You then listen or view messages on the computer rather than voicemail. May be handy for those tweens that like to text and you don’t have to actually give your personal number.


 * [|www.myfakewall.com] -- ** Students can create a fake facebook page. May be useful particularly for ELA or social studies (create a fb page for the main character of a book, or person in history). Can create friends for person, write wall posts, “like” things...


 * [|www.lingro.com] -- ** turns any website into a clickable dictionary (and in different languages). Copy and paste the website you want transformed and a new window pops up...


 * [|www.fotobabble.com] -- ** Upload a picture and then create a voice caption for the photo. (Descriptions, photo of a current event, getting to know you)


 * [|www.animoto.com] -- ** Video slideshow maker with music (teachers get the upgraded membership for free!)


 * [|typewith.me] -- ** will be changing to [|willyou.typewith.me] soon. Realtime document sharing service (similar to google docs) where you can direct students to a particular website to have a “chat” or discuss a question. You can later go back and see what students wrote...


 * [|www.jaycut.com] -- ** Free online video editor


 * [|“The Hat”] -- ** a downloadable pair/group sorter. Enter class lists (You can export your class lit from Infinite Campus). Can project on screen and click on “the hat” and two names pop up and voila! they are partners (no complaining!)! My students really like this and beg for the hat!


 * [|clear.msu.edu] -- ** All sorts of free applications. Currently offering a FREE webinar entitled “Introduction to Rich Internet Applications” for free to teachers willing to give feedback in the pilot program. Webinars are eligible for SB-CEUs from MDE. Go to [|clear.msu.edu/webinars] for more information.


 * MACUL 2012 **


 * [|www.symbaloo.com] ** Streamlines links onto one page


 * [|www.classdojo.com] ** Behavior management tool


 * [|www.blabberize.com] ** This is hilarious. Upload a picture, record some audio, and it moves the mouth and your photo talks!


 * [|www.socratic.com] ** Student response system


 * [] ** Digital Bloom’s Taxonomy (Scoopit)


 * [|www.ipevo.com] -- ** P2V camera (Point to View): cheap document cam, good for on the go with laptop


 * [|www.lessonwriter.com] ** Automatically differentiates lesson plans and breaks down activities.


 * [|www.tourwrist.com] ** 360 degree tours of real places around the world; pretty cool to see on an iPad. Tour the places you talk about in class!


 * Concept of “Flipped Classroom”: **
