Must-read Books
There were many authors in attendance and books discussed. The two stand-out titles that I ran out and bought immediately are:
Tools for Students
| Use Joomag to create magazines. Offers a range of pre-formatted options. |  |
| TouchCast is an easy-to-use video app for the iPad with editing options. |  |
| Use DoInk to create videos and add backgrounds using green screen technology. |  |
| Blogging for educators to use with students. Many built-in features for sharing and controlling access. |  |
| Download X-Ray Goggles and not only see the code behind a selected web page but make changes to the code and see the results on the website. |  |
