Top 10
Schoology
 This app is worthy because it meets the classroom needs of assignment
organization, interactive discussions and collaborations, easy assessment,
and feedback. This app is unparalleled in its overall capabilities and
functions. We also picked this app because of its user friendly design and
ease of customization to suit user needs.
 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/schoology/id411766326?mt=8
Nearpod
This app is excellent because it not only allows teachers to control
and manage the content students have access to on classroom
devices (limited to iOS), but it allows them to create and design
interactive presentations to help students collaborate. Teachers also
have access to assessment tools with this app.
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/nearpod/id523540409?mt=8
Stick Pick
 This app is highly useful. The function of the app and the ability to
choose a student at random for a number of different uses is incredibly
handy. Also, this app allows teachers to assess student responses and
document and track data. This is also a very useful and effective
feedback tool for teachers to use to adjust to student needs.
 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/stick-pick/id436682059?mt=8
Zaption
 This app is another must-have because it allows teachers to safely edit
and share YouTube or Vimeo videos with their class. Unnecessary or
impertinent sections can be excised. With this app teachers are able to
add text, quizzes, and more to videos. This app effectively amplifies any
lesson and makes it interactive and exciting for students, offering visuals
and assessment tools.
 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/zaption-interact-learn-
video/id925786228?mt=8
National Archives DocTeach
 This app is more geared towards social studies, but it is unparalleled in
its potential. This app lets you view a variety of historical documents and
is, thus, the perfect partner to any history lesson. This app is also a good
way for students to find primary and secondary sources for research
projects. Using firsthand sources gives the opportunity to analyze
information and bias.
 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/national-archives-
docsteach/id513465174?mt=8
News-O-Matic, Daily Reading for Kids
 We feel this is a must-have app for any classroom that plans to have a
social studies or history component involved. This app lets students stay
up to date with today's relative news while making it safe for kids. This is
a great app for introducing students to current events and getting them
interested in careers like journalism or politics. Simply keeping students
informed about the world around them is important too.
 https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/news-o-matic-daily-
reading/id578023255?mt=8
Spell Board
 This app is the future of spelling tests. With this app, students are able to
customize the spelling list for that week and then choose fun activities that help
them learn the words. This definitely trumps old “weekly spelling drills.” Students
are able to take practice quizzes at any time to test their progress. Teachers can
even use this app for foreign language classes as it allows you to change
languages. Goodbye old school spelling tests!
 https://www.participate.com/app_reviews/1450-spellboard
CK-12 Physics Simulations
 This app makes the top 10 because it serves so many beneficial functions for
students. With this app students are able to learn at their own pace, review a
lesson multiple times, quiz themselves, watch videos and simulations to help
further their learning, and even choose their own comprehension level. We feel
that this is a great app for helping supplement struggling students as well as
adding an interactive component to any lesson.
 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.ck12.simulations
Simple Mind
 This app is a classroom must-have because many can attest to the
usefulness and efficacy of graphic organizers. Mind maps, like the ones
created with this app, help students to organize and connect their
thoughts and ideas; which helps increase understanding by illustrating
connections between subjects. This app will be very useful in helping
students visualize information and see connections with spatial
organization and color.
