Apps recommended by a College Student

Carly, from one of my favourite blogs 'College Prep' has written up a list of her favourite iPad apps that she uses for her college classes. Instead of re-listing them here I'll direct you over to the blog entry as she explains them best. I've used one of the apps that she's recommended, Dropbox, which is fantastic - and the others she's recommended look great as well. I love the idea of XanEdu, with teachers being able to make up their own course material for the students to easily access via their iPads - there's so much you can do with it.

Welcome

Welcome to the new blog dedicated to publicising great resources for the staff members of Salesian College (or any other person who works in a school environment). I'm sure I'm not the only one, but I'm constantly finding fantastic resources that could be used by staff, either in class or to advance knowledge. I know that in the past I've created a wiki for this reason, however I think that this will be a better place to keep all of the information as it will be easy to access and you don't need to sign up to access the blog.

I'll be posting things like app recommendations for your iPads, new (and relevant) books and recommendations of great websites, online tools, podcasts and videos.

So enjoy, and I hope that you all find something interesting and useful.
