The power of Twitter and personal learning networks continues to amaze me! Yesterday Oklahoma teacher Christy Paradise tweeted me a question
about available workshops or training resources on iTouch and iPhone
applications for education / classroom use. After retweeting the
question, California educator Sandra McGonagle replied with a link to Tony Vincent's upcoming live workshop over UStream on Wednesday, April 29th at 3 pm PST, titled, "Picks from the App Store."
Another California educator, Ken Shelton, also tweeted a link to the iTouch/iPhone session he conducted at CUE last month, "iPhone/iPod Touch: The Ultimate Teaching and Learning Assistant."

Tracey McGrath, a Philadelphia educator, tweeted a link to the Apple Learning Interchange article, "iPod touch. Touching student lives in the classroom: Creative Uses for iPod touch in Education."
California educator Diane Darrow tweeted a link to "Calisphere iTouch History," which is a project bringing California history resources (including primary source materials) onto the iTouch/iPhone platforms.
The December 2008 OEDb post, "Top 50 iPhone Apps for Educators," is also worth checking out on this subject. I found it via Diigo's top social bookmarks tagged "iTouch."
Thank you learning network for sharing all these great resources! I
hope I can tune into Tony Vincent's live webcast on Wednesday to learn
even more and ask him some questions! :-)
