What would you add? iWork Apps Guide

If you’re like me, you’re constantly asking what app you should use with your students. I started a resource to help navigate the different iWorks app. I created this resource to support learning across all subject areas to empower all learners to select the tool that supports your learning outcomes best.

It is a work in progress, but I would love feedback or comments of what else I can add?

Thanks!

Nice job! I like the prompts for student activities. This would be very helpful for teachers getting started with these apps.

Hi Cheryl,

I have found that this resource is helpful for our teachers to select which tool best captures student learning based on both creativity and accessibility!

Really love the second page checklist to compare apps! Will you be adding the other app icons to the first pages? I agree with Cheryl that this is a helpful resource for teachers who are just getting started with these apps, and I think it is also a great resource for students to make their own decisions about how best to show what they know. Thanks for creating and sharing this!

This is a neat resource!

I would add Clips as an app choice for evidence of learning.

I would also add a component that reminds teachers that once students have learned each app, many times they are capable of selecting the app that supports their thinking best. Giving students the freedom to select which app they use can be a quick win for voice and choice!

Shayla,

I love these ideas! I selected these apps because the teachers I work with often use them interchangeably, but struggle with accessibility and capturing all data when assignments are submitted. Our teachers use LMS like Seesaw and Google Classroom so it's essential to see how items to export. For example, students can add audio recordings to Numbers and Keynote, but only Keynotes can be exported including the audio (as a movie). One workaround for Numbers is utilizing the screen recording feature.

I agree with teaching students these resources and shifting the personalization and choice to the learner! I think this is a great thing to reinforce in planning meetings.

Thanks so much for sharing,

Caitlin
