Educreations
Description of app
and capabilities
UDL Principle
app could be used
Educreations can
record voice,
allows the device
(iPad, tablet, etc.)
to act as an
interactive
whiteboard and
allows teachers to
instantly connect
with students in the
classroom and at
home.
I plan to use
Educreations for
students who have a
hard time keeping
up in class, and
with work outside
of school. Due to
its interactive
nature,
Educreations allows
students to quickly
show teachers what
they understand. I
have a student who
has processing
delays and who
requires a
significant amount
of time to complete
in class work. With
this app, I can
correspond with
him as I work with
other students, and
check-in on how he
is working
.

addresses UDL
principle number
two as it provides
multiple means of
action and
expression.
Students can
express
themselves
through different
forms of
communication.
Talkn Photos as an
assistive
communication
device. I have five
students who
struggle greatly
with English and
have a hard time
expressing what
they want to say.
Talkn Photos
allows students to
communicate with
me through
pictures. Students
usually put their
thoughts together at
home, then send me
pictures with a
voiceover about a
given topic from
class. I have found
this to be effective
with ESL students
as it gives them
more space and
time to let them
express their
thoughts with
myself and their
peers.
Scribble Press
allows children to
create their own
books from
scratch, or from
premade story
lines. Scribble
press has a large
gallery of pictures
to choose from and
students can even
order a copy of
their book.
Scribble Press
addresses the
second UDL
principle as it
helps students to
gather their
thoughts and put
them into writing
using different
platforms for
varying degrees
of expression.
My hope is that
students will be
motivated by the
ease of use, and see
how much fun
writing can be (and
publishing if they
choose).
Voice Dream
Reader
Voice Dream
Reader allows
students to listen to
selected text from
a number of
different voices
and speeds.
Students can link
the app to outside
sources to listen to
document as well
(Dropbox, Google
Docs, etc.)
Voice Dream
Reader aligns
with UDL
principle one as it
allows for
multiple means of
representation of
text and listening.

the option of

formats,
collaborating with

Skitch is a great
add-on to Evernotes
for visual learners.
It allows students to

them make notes in
a creative fashion
on what they are
reading or assigned.

Popplet
Popplet is a mind
mapping app. It
allows students to
share their work
with others and
add text, images,
and drawings to
simply created
mind maps.
Popplet addresses
UDL principles II
and III as students
can add and
modify work, and
share it with
colleagues as
well.
Another mind
mapping app,
Popplet is
beneficial to those
with organization
and visual memory
problems
(commonsensemedi
a.org). I find that
mind mapping apps
like Popplet help
students to better
organize thoughts
and ideas. The
simplicity of the
app works well for
ELL students as it
is easy to
understand and
follow.
