A New Blog From Richard Byrne…Focused On iPad Apps!
Richard Byrne’s Free Technolog For Teachers Blog has been one of the top resources for educators trying to integrate technology into their classrooms for quite some time. In fact Richard’s blog was again selected as the Best EdTech Blog in this year’s Edublog awards. What makes Richard’s blog so useful is the fact that he reviews all of the resources that he posts and also has a number of publications and videos that can help teachers in their efforts to utilize more digital resources.
Well, Richard has added to his web-presence with the creation of a new blog geared towards educators looking to implement iPads in their classrooms. At the beginning of December, Richard started a new blog called iPad Apps for School. I have already made it a must follow and added it to my RSS feed.
Thanks for the early Christmas present Richard!
Here are a few recent posts from the new blog worth checking out:

As we move into our second year as a Google Apps school, we continue to offer a number of professional development sessions to help teachers make the move away from Microsoft Office and saving documents on our network. These two options will no longer be supported as we move into the 2012-2013 school year.
The book below is another great resource from Richard Byrne’s Free Technology for Teachers website that can also help staff make this transition.
