THERE'S AN APP FOR THAT!
There are over 500,000 educational Apps available for iOS and Android mobile devices. And this number doesn't include the millions of Apps on both Google Play and the Apple App Store that can be used in an educational setting. The Applications section of this website aims to curate a selection of educational or "educationally repurposed" Apps to provide a resource hub for educators that would like to try out Mobile Learning Pedagogy or new tech in their face-to-face classrooms. The Apps below are geared toward Intermediate Grade Levels (Grade 4-7), but could be adapted for Primary (Grade K-3) or Secondary Grade Levels (Grade 8-12).
I've created 6 collections of Apps to provide easy access to the content based on your educational goals:
The Apps in these collections are mostly FREE, but there are some Paid Apps, Subscription Apps, or Free Apps with In-App Purchases (IAP). Additionally, most of the Apps are iOS, but Android Apps are included, as well as Apps that can be accessed through a website browser. The attached links to each App icon will direct you to a description or review of the app, as well as provide information about where you can access the app (App Store or Google Play).

APPLICATION LEGEND
Below is the App Legend used to label the Apps in these collections. It is meant as a "quick look" to determine if these Apps are compatible with your personal mobile devices, school provided mobile devices, and your budget.
