IPad Apps

One excellent application for science teachers is called Chem Pro? This is a tutorial program that runs the complete spectrum from Chem Tech to AP Chemistry. It features lessons on video with flash cards and equations. There are 80 lessons available with only the first 10 lessons offered free. The remaining 70 lessons can be purchased as needed for $1.99 per lesson. This app offers students help 24 hours a day tailored to meet I dividual needs. The second app is called Science 360 and consists of pictures in a circular format in all areas of science. You simply find an icon that interests you and information on the topic pops up in both video and written format. The choices on the menu appear to move in a circle like a theater in the round. The icons change regularly to zmaintain student interest. This is an app for writing and prompts rather than for research and reference.
