Here are some examples of iPad/smartphone apps that I have seen working well in different schools in recent months – all are free, some have paid-for “professional versions” as is the way in our Freemium world! Please suggest / recommend some more by leaving a comment below and I will add them to this blog entry with an appropriate hat-tip!
