57. Workflow & Assessment with iPad
Showbie:


 * Can annotate directly in Showbie. You don’t have to export it out to annotate for student feedback.
 * Includes voice notes.
 * Need to manage Showbie through the computer.
 * Showbie is an app so doesn’t require logging in each day.
 * 100 assignments might be the limit on the free version. Paid is unlimited assignments.

Notability:


 * Free today (and yesterday). Grab it while you can!
 * Can browse and grab web page right in Notability.
 * Amanda thinks Notability is better than iAnnotate. You can bookmark pages (such as those annotated for an article) in Notability and list just those. Can easily add a blank page in the middle of the document.

Socrative:


 * You can control with teacher app but it works best using the web page.
 * Short answer are marked wrong if spacing isn’t exactly right.
 * Realtime short answers are quick and easy. Then can vote on the response.
 * Can save quiz and share with another teacher via code. Receiving teacher can edit it.
 * Can easily take a picture and import it into quiz.
