Pairwork & discussionsGet students to video each other. Using your VGA adapter or Apple TV to show them to the class and they

can provide feedback to each other

Croak.it app allows 30 seconds of recording. Students can email results to you

Voice Record HD allows for longer recordings which can be emailed to you or uploaded to Dropbox or Google Drive

Wrapped allows you to wrap up a photo and then slowly reveal. Good for guessing & discussions

Guardian eye witness & fotopedia. Beautiful & unusual photos that are great for discussion


Feedback Take a photo of exemplar work use skitch to highlight best

bits or areas for improvement & share with the class

Flip your classroom or give feedback using Show Me app which is a recordable whiteboard. The results can then be shared via a

QR code or email

Use voice record HD to record some feedback share it using a QR code. I recommend i-nigma as a QR reader

Use your ipad as a visualiser. Speak nicely to your science dept and GENTLY clamp you iPad over the work you want to show.

Great for going through homework or past exam papers


Blogging in class

Set up a class blog and select a student/s every week to write the blog post for that week using the iPad.


Randomising & Timing!

Decide Now - for selecting a speaking topic or choosing a student to speak

Tap roulette - for deciding who speaks next.

Stop Go app - traffic light style timer


Personal organisationDaybook - perfect app for lesson planning

Smart seat - a seating plan app which also has a random name generator on it too

Numbers - I use this as a mark book but you could use your planner app

Evernote - brilliant for storing notes and documents in the cloud. You can collate notes together into Notebooks. You can also create note books for

each of your classes and students can email work directly into the relevant notebook. You can even blog directly from it.


Google Drive for storing documents. You can also share documents and work collaboratively on documents too

Dropbox and Mega are both cloud storage systems

Class Dojo a rewards system. Wunderlist - a to do list app.
