About Us
We believe that the best apps are those that are creative, collaborative, and multi-purpose. Apps like these empower students to express their thinking, share with others, and communicate their ideas and knowledge to the teacher, their peers, and the larger world.
This site is a product of the ongoing collaboration between teachers at Burley School and National Teachers Academy who integrate 1:1 iPads into daily instruction. It was initially created as a resource for a student-led App Speed Dating session at the 2013 Chicago Public Schools TechTalk conference.
