Mr.V’s Two Cents: I wish to echo the author’s impression of the pedagogical quality of iPad apps. The glowing reviews and summaries in the iTunes Store must be part of the selection process. As an educator, you are not paid enough to accumulate the discretionary income to purchase apps that ultimately fail in the classroom. This has been a major contention of mine since I started my quest to integrate the iPad into my teacher activities (attendance taking, assignment recording, grade calculations, etc.) and classroom activities (slide presentations, video analysis, review sessions, etc.) in 2010.

Visit this and other resources on the Web to discover new apps and uncover the realities that often never get summarized in the iTunes App Store. The more “real-life” cases you can find concerning an app’s use in the class, the better your choices will be and fewer of your hard-earned Dollars (Pounds, Dinars, Won, Rupies, Rubles, Pesos, Euros, RMBs, etc.) will escape your pockets.
