Doceri (top right) - Great app for turning your iPad into an interactive whiteboard. Allows you to access your iPad through your computer.
Reflector (bottom left) - An app for your computer that allows you to access your iPad from your computer/projector. This is all you need to project your iPad on your whiteboard which bypasses the need for an Apple TV and/or the iPad projector connector.
Splashtop2 (bottom right) - An app that lets you access your computer remotely. Allows you to navigate your entire computer through your iPad. It's extremely helpful when showing websites and PowerPoints to students as you are no longer tied to your computer - you can walk around your room and still navigate your computer!

I {Natalie} attended two of Lorrie Cook's workshops and was wowed both times! She's the one that convinced me to purchase the subscription to Splashtop2 and to buy Reflector. She also sold me on the iMovie app which my students are already enjoying!! I felt a little silly asking for her to take a pic with me, but I felt like she was so inspiring that I had to put her on the blog!

Other highlights of the conference included an inspiring keynote address by Adam Scott Bellows, hanging out with our friend Megan (she went to college with us and is our sorority sister), and the day when both Rachelle and I showed up wearing animal prints!

Overall, this conferences was a wonderful experience and we hope to continue presenting in the future!

Was there good aps for Android?
I love using iMovie in my classroom! The parents love being able to watch the movies for years to come! It's a cheap investment and you'll be glad you downloaded it! :)

I looove that first app too Rachelle! I wish I would have found it earlier because it would be great for parent teacher conferences!
LOOOOOVED your presentation at UCET, and so did the three colleagues I dragged in with me! We were on Spring Break last week (sunny in St. George!), but today I started using Doceri, Stick Pick, and Sock Puppets - THANK YOU for these great ideas and all the others you shared. Seeing you two in person was fun, and I hope you'll present again at UCET... hey, have you heard of SUECON down here in the fall? We would love to have you!
Thank you for the pat on the back Natalie. I enjoyed meeting you and I'm glad I could help.
In response to lcooney's comment:
Reflector is a program downloaded to your computer that enables you to display your iPad through AirPlay, onto your computer. This way you can project Apps on a screen from your iPad via your computer for demonstrations and class activities. Hope this helps!

Thank you. I will check it out. That is just what I needed to know.:)
So crazy small world.. I went to SUU also..I was not part of the sorority but I did hang out with Megan frequently. I also hung out with the Sigma Nu boys..I can not believe it..
I love your blog by the way!
I couldn't find Reflector in the App store, either. Is there a different name for this application? It sounds wonderful!
Thanks for this list of apps to control different TV systems. It's good that I was connected to TV channels after I called the customer support service at https://ion-television.pissedconsumer.com/customer-service.html and politely listened to my request. Now I enjoy more than 100 channels and relax to the fullest. I like that everything works flawlessly and it is possible to record some of the movies on the internal memory of the device and transfer it to the cloud.
