My List - Top 5 Apps for a Flipped Classroom

I was originally going to have a Widget placed on my sidebar for this but decided to put it in a blog post instead because it made the sidebar scroll down way too much and I didn't like the look of the blog, so with that being said, here is my list:


Top 5 Apps for a Flipped Classroom

  • Educreations - A terrific iPad app that is very similar to Ask3 as it turns the iPad into a recordable whiteboard. However, teachers can not only create a guided lessons, but also post them on the web for their students to view at home for flipped learning. 
  • BoomWriter - An excellent innovative site that allows students engage their creativity by completing chapters of a book/story and then having other students vote on which one should be included in the finished product. Once a book/story is completed a trade paperback copy can be ordered, turning students into published writers. 
  • Ask3 - A fantastic iPad app for turning your iPad into a recordable whiteboard. This allows for a teacher to create guided lessons (by adding text/drawing/narration) that students can view at home. Students can then use the app in class to answer each other questions before asking the teacher, while teachers can use it to assess student's learning. 
  • Answer Pad - The ultimate assessment tool for teachers to use with their mobile devices or browser to gauge student's learning. 
  • 9Slides - A wonderful way for teachers to create an interactive/guided presentation for their students flipped learning.
