Where you'll find all the resources for the course!

Welcome to “Working with iPads” class notes

Welcome to the “handouts” source for the Spring 2013 “Working with iPads” classes at Craven Community College. This is a space to ask questions and find the resources mentioned in class. After each session, I will put all of the links and apps I mention here in this space. I hope you’ll take advantage of this resource!

There’s no need to write everything down during class. One of the joys of the iPad is that you can have everything in one place, accessible where ever you happen to be! I went to a conference recently and didn’t take a pen out of my handbag until the 4th day – and that was because someone needed my signature! You will learn that I LOVE being paperless.

Apps Suggested in Class

For Session IV, I always ask participants to bring their favorite apps to share with the class. The last 2 classes have brought some wonderful suggestions which I have listed below. Feel free to comment on this post with your own favorites and I may include them for the next class.

  • Boating apps – Not being a boater, I didn’t think about this category. Upon exploration, I found some really wonderful apps if you are interested in anything having to do with boats. For example, apps on purchasing a boat, equipping a boat, navigation, GPS, magazines for boaters, tides, docks and marinas, fishing, state and national and International guides for boaters and sailers, and much more. Just search Boating or Sailing in the app store.
  •  Jesus Life Together: Prayer Journal, Christian Books and Free Music - Free and with good reviews. Includes writings, full CDs, videos, inspirational pictures and more.
  • White Noise Box (FREE) and White Noise (($1.99) – both have hiigh ratings and reviews and features to help you sleep with white noise background. White Noise appears to have more features. Read the review and decide!
  • Shop Savvy (FREE) – This is a barcode and QR code scanner that checks prices, finds the best, give retailer information, directions, finds deals, and you can save and share. Good ratings and review.
  • CSR Racing (FREE) – Race your dream car in the ultimate test: a drag race along deserted city streets! Great ratings and reviews. Additional app add-ins are available for purchase inside the game.
