Apps with Jessi Lalonde

Jessi (@jessilalonde) took us through an A-Z look at apps we can use in Education.  It was fast paced and full of great info!  Jessi brought everything back to great pedagogical uses.  Some cool tips I took away

• Her first slide was full of Scrabble tiles (see above) - each one was linked to the slide with the apps for that letter - VERY cute idea.
• Save your favourite Bitmojis in Google Keep
• Use Apple Clips to add closed captioning to videos - great for accessibility.
• DriveTunes - a new extension to me - DriveTunes allows you to play .mp3 and .m4a audio files right from Google Drive.
• She talked about ways to help student with executive functioning disorders keep organized with Google Keep - totally going home to do this with my son!
• 57 North - a choose your own adventure app for your MergeCube.
• Make challenges for students to become Chrome Kings - experts in areas of Chrome (or any app for that matter!)
