iPhone+Apps

If you have an iPhone or iPod Touch and are an app lover like me, check these out:


 * **__eduTecher__**: Gives a brief synopsis of cutting edge Web 2.0 tools for education. You can click the TV icon and link directly to their YouTube webisodes to see the tools in action. There is a search feature that lets you search by content area or you can go to the "More" tab and search by content area from special ed to specials to ESL and foreign language.
 * **__Educate:__** It is the teacher's organizer. Icons include a scheduling feature for blocked schedules/agendas, grade tracker (must import roster first, possibly from Google Docs), ideas for independent thinking and collaborative strategies, an elearning depository to keep favorite bookmarks, photos, keep time for small groups, and voice record.
 * **__Animoto:__** Create movies from your iPhone in minutes! You can take photos or retreive ones already on there, rearrange the order to your satisfaction, add music from their storage, and voila! It is faster than transferring pictures from your memory stick and going the traditional route. If you have a special event, you could take the pictures and have the the movie made and posted or forwarded before you even get home! Imagine the fun on a field trip, classroom activities, specials, or readers theater, and being able to enjoy the times with your class as a whole.
