26 iPad Apps to Transform Your Teaching

June 29, 2014
Today I am bringing you a great find I learned through TechChef4U. This is a list of useful iPad apps to transform your teaching. The list is created by Rachel Jones ( from  Create Innovate Explore ) and features some really great titles that every teacher should know about. And though most of these apps have already been featured here in this blog in several past instances, the list also contains some new apps I never had the chance to share here ( e.g., Moldiv, Memrise, and Green Screen Movie FX).




Rachel embedded these apps in the visual below this table, but unfortunately the visual is not hyperlinked and therefore to access and download the apps you will have to look for them on Google. To avoid this hassle I did the job for you.  I went ahead and created this table to make it easy for you to access the apps from one single place and with one click.

With Popplet you can capture your ideas, sort them visually, and collaborate with others in realtime.
