Creating your own school iPad App

By Mark Anderson Digital Leaders, iClevedon, iPad 9 Comments

I remember when I was a teenager. I know you might think that would be a difficult thing for me to do, what with it being so long ago and all that. It actually wasn't all that long ago though. Ok, so maybe 25 years ago is a fair amount…

I ♥ SAMR

By Mark Anderson EdTech, T & L 4 Comments

There's been a fair bit of mention of the SAMR framework recently so I thought I'd share another rendition of the framework. I've always preferred looking at it in a vertical sense, moving upwards rather than a top down looking model. It makes more sense to me. What do…

It's not often that I write a specific post on a specific app but I am today. I've been using the app 'Grafio' for some time now. I found it because I was looking for an app that I could use to create my own infographics (a diagram that plots…

iPad 110 – Stakeholders

By Mark Anderson ICT, iPad No Comments

Involving all stakeholders in any large scale school project is really important and it’s essential to remember this. Parents are no exception.
