May 15, 2016 – 3:59 pm

Have you ever cut into butter with a warm knife? Slides right through, right? (like butta!) Using Doceri with the Apple Pencil on an iPad Pro feels just like that. Previous to the Apple Pencil and iPad Pro I was using Doceri on an iPad2 with a Jot Script stylus and I thought that was […]

Doceri + Apple TV = Distraction-free Teaching

August 1, 2012 – 10:15 am

Since Apple introduced its Apple TV, educators have been discovering that the combination of an iPad, Airplay and Apple TV makes for a compelling untethered teaching tool. Sam Gliksman from iPads in Education called it the Hidden Gem for Education in IOS5 back in October 2011. Wired Educators’ Larry Reiff wrote about Using Apple TV […]

Like Doceri, new iBook Author puts teachers in control of creating content

January 19, 2012 – 1:19 pm

Here’s our take on today’s Apple announcement: It puts teachers in the driver’s seat to create and share content with their students and each other. The content creation trend is moving rapidly into the education realm, and it’s about time. Great teachers create great teaching resources for their classes, and have been doing so for years, from the […]

Copyright and Fair Use in the Classroom

July 19, 2011 – 12:13 pm

Creativity is at an all time high in the classroom. Every day we’re talking to teachers who are using Doceri to create their own lessons on their iPads – and the sky’s the limit as to what they can do. But what about copyright, and what is fair use? Teaching the concept – and serving as a role model in the classroom – are both important given today’s explosion of new media opportunities.
