Presentation to the 2012 Wisconsin Reading Research Conference, Madison, Wisconsin: Uses of iPad/iPhone Apps for Fostering Literacy Learning Across the Curriculum
Educators know that learning happens best when learners are motivated and supported, so how can we support learning activities where students use the technology at their disposal? Our faculty used mobile and web technologies to create interactive tours and collaborative field research for students to engage with content situated in authentic contexts. Building on this experience, the Mobile Learning Incubator has been evaluating the integration of game elements into newer field research tools. In this session, we'll get in touch with our inner college student to understand the breadth and scope of mobile as a learning tool, synthesize our different perspectives in small groups, analyze and evaluate how current uses of mobile in higher education teaching and learning support these perspectives, and create a set of challenges and strategies around mobile learning for higher education IT to address.
OUTCOMES: Learn about several types of mobile-enhanced T&L activities * Inhabit a student's view of mobile * Create and share a range of potential learning activities based on that perspective * Evaluate how IT can address mobile learning needs, based on a T&L focus

“It doesn’t get done in a day. Enabling Project Based Learning with the iPad”
Project Based Learning is not a new concept to teachers and learners. Project Based Learning allows a student to work over an extended period of time answering a driving
question. The question can be so deep that it requires students to create a project to share their findings with others.
In a traditional classroom, a Project Based Activity can take days or even weeks to complete. The iPad has not only transformed the way that we teach and learn but
has enabled teachers to deliver and manage Project
Based Lessons in a creative, time efficient and effective
way that allows students to critically think, analyse and
present their findings.
Participants of this workshop will leave with a toolkit of
iPad apps such as Tools4Students, Explain Everything,
Creative Book Builder, and resources to assist in the
development of Project Based Lessons in the classroom.
This short presentation from Jenny Hughes looks at teaching coding in school. It ends by producing guidelines for teachers new to technology in the classroom.a
What will education and teaching look like in the future. Emerging technologies, changing pedagogies, new literacies and digital learners. This presentation is produced for teachers and trainers.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. #1 - Maths Apps
Add some math apps to the iPod Touch and let students who
finish early use the iPod Touch to play Mathletics and other
math games.
If you have more than one available you could have students
competing against each other for high scores.
(Some apps I use are: Basic Math, Mathletics, Math Quizzer,
PopMath Lite, Brain+)
(Jo Fothergill, @kiwijoe90, Room 10 RBS)
3. #2 - Fantastic Contraption
Fantastic starter, gets all
the class involved. You
have to build a
contraption to get from A-
B. Pupils all get involved
trying to improve and
adjust the contraption
and make it work. Cost
£2.99 but you only need
1 copy if you have a
visualizer
4. #3 - Voice memo - collaborative story
building
Get a pupil to record the first line
of a story, pass it to the next pupil
to listen to and add to, continue
with each pupil adding a part until
the story is complete.
5. #4 - Collect Data with Google Forms
Create a Google Form and email
it to your iPod Touch. When you
click the link, it will take you to the
Form formatted for the Touch,
with multiple choice scroll menus,
text boxes, etc. Use the Touch as
a handheld data collection device
that automatically populates a
spreadsheet with your data.
6. #5 - Conduct assessment with Online
Polls
Using Poll Everywhere
students can access polls
online and vote for the correct
answer. Poll everywhere is
FREE for up to 30 users per
poll. Additional users can be
added at a fee.
Using Assessment Apps like
qWhiz, ResponseWare,
Teachers Pick, iResponse
that work like traditional
clickers. Paul Hieronymus

8. #7 - Create a Collaborative Context
Touch Pets Dogs (free) is a great app to
use for creating a context. Pupils adopt
a puppy and are responsible for its
needs ranging from food, exercise and
training to building a career and
socializing.
Earn puppy bucks by caring for your
puppy then buy treats, careers and
accessories.
Progress through careers
by successfully completing challenges.
Can be used to develop skills in
literacy, maths and health and
wellbeing.

9. #8 - TypeDrawing
Use an app called TypeDrawing
to create a visual message in
response to a current event.
Share to folder and create a
slideshow to post on class
website. This is a great way
to display a reaction to
an event or text.

10. #9 - Create a Mini
Listening Centre
• Use a Belkin Rock Star to turn one
iPod into a mini listening centre for 5
pupils.
• Download or make your own or
student voice recordings of favourite
stories/rhymes. Get other pupils,
teachers, parents or principal to read
as well.
• Create listening skills activities to
develop auditory discrimination or
meet student ESL/special needs.

11. #11 Magic Wallet -app http://web.me.com/jenashby/iPodTouch_Project/Blog/Blog.html
Some say it’s a party trick app. I say it’s great for coin recognition and for counting
coins. I have worked out some games. When the i is showing you can get more
info and select the type of currency you require.
How much is in my wallet?
1. Fill the wallet with coins and then take a
screen shot.(use in comic touch and label coins)
2. Open the screen shot and record in a
table how many of each coin.
3. Start with the largest value coin and count,
next add on the next in value etc until you have
a total of the wallet.
4. Give your partner a turn and see if they
can get more money in the wallet.
Money grab
1. Fill the wallet and then take turns to double tap and take a coin.
2. Fill in the chart as you go.
3. At the end when no more coins come in the wallet you find out who got the most
money. This could be limited by just allowing 5 grabs each.
Also it could be the person with the least amount wins.

12. #10 - Design a New Book Nook (NBN)
• Begin to create blended learning spaces and experiences in your
classroom.
• Create a small area where 3-5 children can engage in a variety of
literacy experiences.
• Include traditional children's literature materials and digital media.
• Items to consider
o Bookshelves
o Books
o eBooks
o iPod Touch
o iPad
o TouchSmart Computer
• Consider the seating (floor cushions; small chairs; rug;
table/chairs)
• Consider the viewing distance; accessibility [children will need to
touch]
• Consider safety
13. #12 Practice Descriptions
in a Foreign Language
Working with a partner, create something
that the other person needs to describe:
• Create an alien with Martian App and describe the creature
• Dress up a character with DressUpLite (or other clothing app) and describe
clothing
• Customize the face with PicBook and have students describe facial features
and emotions
• Draw with DoodleBuddy (or any other drawing app) and describe what is
happening using verbs and adjectives
14. #13 Bump!
Children can work collaboratively on, say, a research task and pass
images to each other with the free Bump app.
Images can be gathered from the web, annotated with one of the many
comic apps (eg Comic Twist or Strip designer) and collected via bump on
on touch. The images could then be strung together with a slideshow app
(Sonic Pics) adding audio.
@johnjohnston (ipod touch posts, ipod touch pilot blog)
15. #14 Image Search - auto attribution
http://johnjohnston.info/flickrcctouch/
Children can use images for lots of learning tasks, using as stimulus for writing,
supporting research etc, etc.
Images can annotated with one of the many comic apps (eg Comic Twist or
Strip designer) or strung together with a slideshow app (Sonic Pics) adding
audio.
The above ipod optimised (a bit) webpage will search photos on flickr than can
be edited and 'stamp' them with attribution.
@johnjohnston (ipod touch posts, ipod touch pilot blog)
16. #15 Linking to Google Maps
The url is made up of several 'bits'
• http://maps.google.co.uk/maps? NB the ?
• q=How%20Many%20Cars@55.86351815435995 -- the title you
want with spaces preplaced by %20 followed by @ and the
location (You can get the loc by right clicking and dropping a
marker in on a google map )
• z=18 18 is the zoom
• t=h gives the hybrid view (options are "m" map, "k" satellite, "h"
hybrid, "p" terrain, "e" GoogleEarth)
There are many interesting ways of using Google Maps in the classroom.
Tom Barrett's Math's maps http://edte.ch/blog/maths-maps/ show great ideas
and can be adapted to the ipod touch. It might be better to have one
challenge at a time, you can add a labelled pin to a map by linking (from a
webpage, blog post, or via email).
Orange guy, if present, will take you into StreetView, good for descriptive
writing.
@johnjohnston (ipod touch posts, ipod touch pilot blog)
17. #16 Instapaper
Instapaper, is an application that allows you to reposition web
content, and your own content, for easy reading on devices such
as the iPod Touch. As you are browsing a web page, you can
send the text of that page (through the use of a bookmarklet) to
your iPod Touch to read later (and offline if necessary) with the
Instapaper app. This app can be used with a classroom set of
iPod Touches to create a system of pushing content out to the
iPod Touches with a minimal amount of work.
A teacher could use this to share with her students an article she
would like them to read on the iPod Touch. By using this
method, she can invoke the Instapaper bookmarklet, which grabs the text of the web page, and then
have the article appear on each of the classroom iPod Touches synced to the class account. In addition
when you set up your account with Instapaper, you also have access to a special email address that
allows you to send the contents of an email to the Instapaper app. For example a teacher might create
a handout in her email and then instead of photocopying, she sends the email to the Instapaper account
and it shows up on each iPod Touch.
I use this method at home with my son. I have his account bookmarked on my browser and when I find
something I believe he would be interested in reading, I send it to him via Instapaper and he reads it on
his iPod Touch.
@timlauer
18. #17 Pixter
Pixter can be used to assemble a series of photos (or other
images) into a collage. One usewould be to reinforce vocabulary
using image associations, typically the kind of thing which might
be done in languages, but perhaps in any subject where new
vocab arises.
There are 3 steps:
• Search for the images and save them to the photo library
(John Johnston provides a useful way of doing this on slide
14)
• Use Pixter to arrange the images onto a single work area
and when complete, save back to the Library.
• Open the collage in Comic Touch Lite and add the
annotations.
Ian Guest
@IaninSheffield
A final stage might be for pupils to email the completed image to a (moderated?) Posterous
site. This would mean they could add additional description or explanations in the body of
the email which would then be automatically posted with their collage.
19. #18 StoryKit
. . . from the ICDL Foundation can be used
for telling a story in words, images and
audio. That story could be a series of
poems, an analysis of/report on a figure in
History or an experiment report in Science.
Pupils create a ‘book’ from scratch, page by
page, typing in text or pasting from
elsewhere, bringing images in from the Photo
Library and recording audio if needed.
Swapping from Edit mode to Read allows the
book to be viewed and browsed as with the
sample books which come with StoryKit. The
completed book can be uploaded to the
StoryKit server with a single click – you’re
then provided with a unique URL which
points towards the online version which has
the same content, but without the book-like
look and feel. Here's an example.
Details of how to create a Story can be found
in this video by scsiFifth (although the
description is for the iPad, it’s exactly the
same on the Touch)

@IaninSheffield
20. #19 Radio Station apps
. . . could be useful to support language learning, more
specifically with older students perhaps?
The Radio France app for example:
• provides plenty of opportunities for listening to native
speakers in authentic situations
• provides access to their stations (Music, Sport, Culture
etc)
• has associated podcasts
• provides dedicated news channels for each of the
stations
So in addition to listening to the live channels, lessons could
be planned around topical news items pulled down through
any of the news feeds. Written text and audio from the
original broadcast are available together.
By subscribing to any of the podcast categories, a weekly
'bulletin' session could take place where a different student
feeds back about what's been happening in their chosen
topic.
. . . by all means add other uses if you can think of any
Ian Guest
@IaninSheffield
21. #20 Probability and Percentages
Install the free app "iChoose", which
has coin toss, dice, cards and other
options for random outcomes.
Students play for a fixed time and tally
their results. They then calculate the
percentage of each outcome using the
iPod calculator and compare their
results with the whole class data, to
show after many trials experimental
data approaches theoretical You can also compare real coin
probability. and dice data with iPod results if
you don't have enough devices
to go around.
@brittgow
22. # 21 LOTE/ESL/Special Ed Activity...
Using the apps Etch a Sketch Lite or some CC pictures from Safari.
Find pictures relating to a set topic. Save these pictures to your
camera roll. (4 pictures is ideal).
Go to "Strip Design". Select how many
frames you would like. Add the pictures
to your frames. (Put a border to make it
stand out). Add text boxes/speech
bubbles to each of your picture frames.Save the picture via email or
as a screen-shot. This will save it in your Photos App. They then can be used
as flashcards for learning new skills, languages or to help students with ESL.

reduces the file size)
– Create a free account at box.net
– Upload your pdfs
– Install the box.net app on your iPod
– Log in to your account on the iPod
– View your files
– Save them to your iPod for offline viewing if necessary

24. #23 - iPadio
iPadio is a voice recording tool that now allows you to record
and upload from iPod Touches into your own account, which
it did not allow previously. Also my students use the iPods as
their classroom computer platform. They blog directly into
their Edublogs.org accounts from the iPods. They have to
click on the "HTML" tab to write into the body of the blog.

25. #24 - iResponse
iResponse ($.99) & iResponse Pro
($4.99) allow for a student response
system (i.e. 'clicker' system) to be
used with your iPod Touches in the

27. #26 - What's the Weather Like?
I have a set of ipod touches in my classroom. Last year my
first graders used the weather app to learn about line graphs.
We kept track of the weather in the locations of our pen pals
in Zambia, Lebanon, New Hampshire (US), and our own in
Colorado (US).
They not only learned to graph, they learned about the
difference between Celsius and Fahrenheit as well as the
different seasons in the northern and southern hemispheres.
At the same time, we referred to the time using the clock
each day as well. It showed not only the time difference, but
also clearly showed the young learners when it was day here,
but night somewhere around the globe.
Simple lessons without purchasing any apps!
@c_arnett
28. # 27 Tumblr app
Use the fantastic (and free!) Tumblr app to make posting to a project or class blog
completely straightforward. You can post the full range of content (especially with the new
iPods). Pre-synch the ipod with your Tumblr blog of choice, and it will go straight on
without any messing around with submission and moderation. Instant!

29. #29 Use Voice Memo + Posterous to
record an audio exit slip
1. Pick a different student at the end of each class to record
their answer to an exit prompt such as, "What was the best
part of today's class?" or "What questions do you still have?"
or "What did you learn today? (On an older iTouch,
you'll need to use the earphones with a built in
microphone or get a thumbnail microphone.
2. Email their response using the Share feature
in the Voice Memo app to your Posterous account.
3. Let parents know the Posterous URL so they
can tune in each night to hear what the kids are
saying about their class.

to PC skype contact
Latest version of skype, coupled
with latest iPod touch gives
you the ability to move around a
wireless-enabled school
video-conferencing / broadcasting
back to another skype account
being used in the
classroom on the projector.
So many possibilities are opened up.
1. Student reporters going around an activity or sports day with 'live link up back to the
studio'
2. Treasure hunt, with classroom doing the problem solving whilst Anneka Rice volunteers
go round the school folllowing the instructions of their classmates.
3. School council can be video streamed straight into the dining room.
4. (Skype even streams video via the 3g network so iPhone/MiFi enabled groups could
even report back from field trips...)

31. #30 - Flip It! To Show Learning
Students can show their learning using Flip It! The application
is easy to use, even for students at the primary level. Our
second graders created individual books to show the life cycle
of a plant.
Their first page was the ground; they copied the page and
added a seed, the next page the roots, and continued to add
elements to pages to show the entire plant cycle from seed to
reseeding. The application can be used to show sequential or
cyclical processes or just for creativity.
There is a lite version to try it out; the paid application is $1.99.
