TowerStorm

TowerStorm is a fantastic free iOS app for Game Based Learning in the subjects of Math & Literacy. As w/ any game created by the award winning company DimensionU, this game takes place in a multiplayer 3D virtual world.  Players can create their avatar and unlock special power ups as they immerse themselves in a fun 3D world while solving problems in Math/Literacy aligned to Common Core Standards.  Best of all, the game tracks a players score and generates detail reports as well as lets a player customize and select what problems they want to encounter (i.e. Algebra, Vocabulary, etc.).  Also, TowerStorm has high replay value as each game lasts only 5 minutes and has students trying to answer as many questions correct as they can while trying t
o score points by changing the color of rings on the Tower.

Curriculet

Curriculet is an innovative new site that reminds me of EDpuzzle but for books.  This site allows educators to purchase any digital book and turn it into a lesson.  The way this works is an educator selects a book and then adds different types of media (i.e. questions, quiz, video) to create a lesson for students.  Once the lesson is completed a teacher gets instant real-time feedback to assess student's learning.  This is also a great way for educators to track Common Core Literacy Standards and "flip" their classroom.

Kindoma Storytimer

Kindoma Storytime is an interesting iOS app that combines "story time" w/ video chat to allow others to read a digital book together.  This is really good when wanting to read a story w/ another who is not around (i.e. child, student, etc).  The books can be selected by Reading and then are synced together so when a page is turned it does it on both devices.  Another great feature is the ability to point or highlight words so that the other person can see what is going on in real time.  For example, it's a great way to access student comprehension by having them point to items in the book.
