Description

*Scoodle Jam - Best New Apps for iPad in the App Store**

Designed for K8 learners, Scoodle Jam empowers teachers with CCSS-aligned content, collaboration, and creation tools to:
* enhance common core instruction
* develop student innovation and learning skills
* kickstart project based learning (PBL)
* engage students across the curriculum

Using a combination of the teacher's own lessons and Scoodle Jam's built-in graphic organizers, templates, and projects, students write, draw, type, and add photos to explore concepts, illustrate and share their learning. Via Edmodo Connect, students turn in and share Scoodle Jam-created assignments, sync canvases to collaborate with a partner on the same page, and work remotely with optional video chat.
