[nobe-l] Question about apps used in the classroom

[Annely Rose]

Hi,

Here is some information I copied and pasted from another list I belong to with the Florida Instructional Materials Center for the Visually Impaired.  They had and are having several webinars.  Those that have occurred are podcasted and can be viewed.  I don't remember all of them, but they are listed on the site.  Hope this is helpful.

 Hello,
 I am curious to know what apps are used most in the
 classroom. I've heard that teachers use their phones or
 iPads to work with the students in class, but I am not sure
 of any of the apps that are used. What apps are accessible
 for teachers who are blind? Any help would be greatly
 appreciated.
