Bryan's Technology App of the week
  • CCSS Technology Standard Addressed - X.W.8 - Gather relevant information from multiple print and digital sources, using search terms effectively; assess the credibility and accuracy of each source; and quote or paraphrase the data and conclusions of others while avoiding plagiarism and following a standard format for citation.
Adobe Voice for iPads - Want a simple to use, Free, App that allows you to create stunning presentations with graphics custom backgrounds and music.  This App would be great for small group work, use with any subject, any grade level, to do a research project using pictures or screenshots and adding narration of each participant.  You can even choose from built in music files to enhance your presentations.
Add an Apple TV to allow your small groups to present out to the entire class.
