How else can this be an effective tool? Activity 2: App ExplorationWhat apps have you experimented with so far and/or have interest in learning more about? Take a look at some student-created activities from various programs (ChatterPix, Pic Collage, Screen Chomp, etc.). How could these give you an informative look at each child, as well as formative? Partner up and choose at least 2 more apps (besides popplet) that you are not familiar with from the board or that you have interest in. Take some time to explore it and be ready to share the app and a way it can be used in the classroom. If you have more time, do another. Be sure to note sharing capabilities of finished products that can be shared with parents and each other.
