K-12 teaching web tools provider Teachscape launched an iPad app for instructional leaders to help them gather Classroom Walkthrough (CWT) data.
Here’s what’s it all about (from the press release):
Teachscape Instruction | Mobile is implemented as part of the Teachscape Classroom Walkthrough process – a process that uses walkthrough data to engage instructional leaders and teachers in reflective learning communities focused on adjusting instruction to meet student needs. Using the iPad, educators can collect data, upload to the online reporting system via a wireless or data connection, and then log into the Teachscape website to generate reports and manage their entries. Teachscape Instruction | Mobile includes a series of protocols to support good instruction and provides districts with tools to develop their own walkthrough protocols.
In addition to the iPad, Teachscape also has a desktop application, as well as apps for other popular mobile platforms, including BlackBerry, Palm (webOS?) and Windows Mobile. The AppStore link is below…
