Appar för berättande

Jag har några appar på iPaden som jag använder till många olika saker när vi jobbar med berättande på olika sätt med eleverna i åk 1-3. Det har varit till presentationer av olika slag i alla ämnen. Bara fantasin som sätter stopp. Det är följande appar: Book Creator Book Creator 38:- Book Creator är en mycket kreativ app där man kan skapa egna digitala böcker. När man är klar med den kan man bland annat välja att spara den som pdf och då kan man använda sig av Flipsnack för att bädda in den på t.ex. bloggen. Läs med i denna guide eller hos Skolappar.

E-readers prove easy on the eye for some dyslexics Using an e-reader may help some dyslexic students understand what they read, researchers at Harvard University argue. In a paper published in the journal PLOS One, the authors found that a group of dyslexic teenagers showed greater reading comprehension when using an iPod Touch e-reader than when asked to read from paper. The e-reader was formatted to display around nine lines of text on the screen at a time, with only two or three words in each line, leaving fewer visual distractions. The dominant theoretical explanation for dyslexia involves phonological processing, or understanding the sound structure of speech. In normal reading, there is a sensitive and highly efficient link between eye movement and understanding. Problems in the text, such as typos or unknown words, prompt an almost immediate response, with eyes tracking backward and forward to check the surrounding context to help resolve the issue. In skilled reading, this process is so automatic we hardly notice it.
