IPads in education

'Do not confine your children to your own learning, for they were born in another time' --- ancient proverb. Have a look at this website, there are amazing resources here.

Using video in science

Show Me is an interactive white board app that allows me to demostrate a topic. While I am drawing, I can record myself explaining a topic and then I can share that video with my class - and with other classes too.

Changing App Stores

Changing App Store is easy. If you wish to swop between USA, SA or any other store you can do by going to "settings",  "iTunes & app stores".  Then click on your apple id and log in with your apple password. After that it will give you the country you currently purchasing through. If you do want to buy through the US store chat to me about purchasing vouchers.

Explain Everything Manual

The teacher and inspiration behind the wonderful Explain Everything app has kindly given permission to distribute the iBook Author copy of their manual here in South Africa free of charge. To access the book for download please go here, and follow the instructions. It is a large book (88MB) and will take some time to download. I suggest you download the file on your iPad so you can send it straight into iBooks.
