At what point does something become copyright protected? What happens if someone uses an image, video or music clip they did not create without the creator’s permission? This presentation will cover copyright law, fair use doctrine, and creative commons along with ideas of how to allow teacher and student creativity to flourish in the midst of all the confusion.
Discover how to use a handful of apps across the curriculum. This presentation includes a thorough tour of student-created work and app-tivities using 3 apps (e.g. Pic Collage, Strip Designer/Comic Life, and Scrap Pad). As these apps are product-based in nature, they are coined as “apps to grow with” - apps that can be used PreK-12 and beyond and stretched across the curriculum. This session will also touch on workflow, professional development, and student showcases. App-tivities Across the Curriculum: http://pinterest.com/techchef4u/collagecomic-app-tivities/
Publishing student understanding and content in book form is a novel way (pun-intended) for students to showcase their learning. This session will guide learners through a spectrum of book creation apps from limited customization (e.g. modifying text and images) to full publishing. Through the tour, learners will explore these tools and discuss how they can be used across the curriculum to support literacy.

This fast-paced session focuses on how elementary teachers can use a single iPad creatively and productively in multiple settings such as whole group, pass around, small groups, and stations. A plethora of apps (both consumptive and product-based), app-tivities, blogs, and resources will be showcased across the curriculum. While the intent is to support teachers with a single iPad and highlight ways to boost student engagement, learning, and productivity, the suggestions and apps shared would be useful to teachers with multiple iPads as well. (If you attended this session last year, it has been completely retooled and revamped!) 1 iPad Classroom: http://list.ly/list/4DF-1-ipad-classroom-apps?feature=trending
