**Assignment #1 iTunes** **Assignment #2Applications** 1. __TED__. I will use TED talks to enhance the creative experience for the students. I believe that the talks will encourage the students to think of practical applications for art and design.
 * 1) I explored diffent art podcasts and videos that introduced the audience (students) to different art museums. Most of the podcasts seemed a little dry for the middle school students. I have not been successful in finding any podcasts that I would use and I will continue to search.

2. __Animoto.__ Animoto would be a great app for thestudents to use to create individual short videos where they discuss artworks work, a live artist statement. I could see playing thesevideos dshows the school wide art show.

3.__ColorTouch__ This app allows students to isolate areas of a photograph to colorized, leaving the rest of the photograph black and white. I would like to use this to teach the concept of composition and emphasis.

4. __ScreenChomp.__ Often I project images of art work on a screen and point to draw the student's attention to specific areas. By creating a presentation using this app I would be able to show images and actually draw on them to emphasize a concept.

5. __Hudson Museum__ This app may tie into my World Art classanti imagine students exploring this app to learn moroutbound a variety of cultures.

6.__iMovie__ Students may use this appdot firsphotograph their work on a specific project,combine the photographs of all students into a movietreating a gallery walk. They could add music that represents the feelings in thow work and also include individual testimonials

__7. Art Authority.__ This app would be a great way for students to explore art history independently or within small groups.

8.__Merriam__ __Webster__ __Dictionary.__ Students are required to write in art and they often ask me for help with spelling. This dictionary app would be used by students on a daily basis to check their spelling and also to look up definitions of words.

9. __Art Circles /Art.cm__ This app will be used to connect students to the work of current real life artists. I may have students look at current work and compareasd contrast it to work of famous artists or specific art periods.

10. __Color Effects__ This app will be used to alter photographs by my digital photography students.

1. __Photo Shop I will use this app as a tutorial to learn the Photo Shop program.__
 * Personal apps:**

__2. Palettes This app allows you to create color palettes to be used in any application.__

__3. aPhoto I could use this app to edit photographs.__

__4. Color Me Photo HD This is a cool app that gives you the tools to manipulate photos in the style of Warhol.__

__5.Visual Poetry I think that this app would be fun to use to create different types of word art. It is a lot like wordless however it allows you to incorporatephotographs ans word art in the same final image.__
