I Education Apps Review - App Reviews and Educational Commentary

Who can give you the best advice on ITouch Apps?

Check out this very nice article on Teacher Magazine written by By Patrick Ledesma and Steve Jarosz.  I think the most poignant aspect of the article besides the nice shout out for I Education Apps Review is their advice on who can give the best advice. 

As the Apple ad goes, “there’s an app for that,” and there are definitely lots of apps, which is why so many educators are excited about the potential of the iPod Touch in classrooms. But from our dual perspectives─classroom teacher and school technology specialist─the most useful comments about the potential of this handheld device to support teaching learning came from our students.

Great advice that we all should keep in mind.  We have slowed down greatly with our app reviews and a lot of that has to do with not having as much access to our fine students.
