Explain everything - is an amazing iPad app that allows student teachers to capture everything and anything created, annotate, narrate, animate, used as a interactive whiteboard export, import multimedia anything really, the uses are endless and this is just a small list of the apps capabilities.
All learning theories objectives can be facilitated with this app but I will look at how it is a great vehicle for the constructivist learning theory as it allows the learner to be active learners and this technology allows learners to go beyond the bounds of their learning instruction. It can be used an endless array of way in the classroom outside of the classroom and enable a continuity of learning spaces. It enable collaboration with others, builds digital literacy and independent learning and allows to explore curiosity about what they are learning and build on their own knowledge helped along by their educators of course. It teaches student how to critically think and they can offer up their own evaluation, insights and analysis. Applying the SAMR model this technology fits the Redefinition phase and transformational learning stage of the model.
This tool is useful as it can be used in a vast number of ways - students can create a animated video and then collaborate and share their videos on Youtube or other supported platforms. Content can be peer reviewed and shared with other schools in different countries or regions for instance. This make this iPad app truly transformational as this could not be done in a traditional classroom - learning is greatly enhanced using this technology.
