My personal blog for apps that can be used in science, as well as general apps for assessment, recording and AFL.

Word Collage
Very much like Wordle. You enter the words and it makes word collages out of them. Save to Photo Album or email.

Prizmo - document scanning, OCR and speech
Take a photo of some text. The app will enhance the text and read it to you in an understandable voice. It connects with Dropbox. Here's a tutorial video. Great for pupils for whom accessing information is a struggle.

Prompt Pro (free)
Like an autocue. You enter your text and it scrolls through as you read it. Good for reading to camera or as an incentive to read more fluemtly.
