Apps

Here are some Apps we have found to be very useful in the shared environment. When purchasing apps we would like the app to allow students to upload it to a shared location (cloud account) or e-mail address so they are able to work on the project with a different account or device/computer.

The apps below are specific to digital storytelling activities. I have not tried/tested all of them but hope to in the future.
