Day 5, July 8

                   Today I viewed the Webinar on Apps in Action for Communication Disorders. There are so many wonderful Apps available for students with autism and other communication disorders. As I was viewing, I couldn’t help but reflect on the many students in my classes when I was a student who would have benefited so much from this technology.
                   I was particularly drawn to the Language Development Apps for younger students. The Apps: Which Go Together and Which Does Not Belong both looked to be very useful.  Pictello is an amazing App and as you stated has so many wonderful uses.
                    I really look forward to the time when the ipod touches are more readily available for students and teachers in our school system.
                  Have a great week-end!

  1. Thanks Angela - glad you liked Pictello!
    Maybe you could write a grant and get iPod Touches and Apps in your school. And oh! They have never had an Apple Distinguished Educator from Newfoundland!...you could be the first..and/or Carl:)

  2. I was thinking about my students with autism who would benefit from these apps as well. So many great ideas out there!
