I knew it was only a matter of time before those apps that you can download onto your smartphone found there way to your computer.  At the ISTE 2011 conference, more and more technology apps are being started. Especially now with the success of the IPAD, teachers now have the ability to download apps like the Show Me app, and use it to enhance lesson.  The Show Me apps seems to be a easy to use sort of screencast application that teachers and students can use to create videos.  It's great for teachers because it allows you to demonstrate what it is you want your students to learn.  It's great for students because it allows them the opportunity to build video portfolios among other things.  It's time for me to start building my app for the 2012 convention.
