Introduction This document provides an overview of the iPads apps I have found useful as an educator and in my personal life. Most of the apps were free, some cost a dollar or two. Only a few cost $9.99. Many thanks to my colleagues in my home academic department of Curriculum & Instruction as well as the College of Education and Human Development staff within the Office of Information Technology at the University of Minnesota. I received good recommendations from them reflected in this document. Updating iPad Apps If you own an iPad2 or higher, updating apps is not a problem. In fact, the new Apple operating system has made it easier. If you own the original iPad1, updating has stopped since Apple will no longer provide updated operating systems.
