Apps, those programs we love to use on our mobile devices are pretty amazing and can be powerful tools for learning. What happens when we combine multiple apps to unlock something even more amazing? That's App Smashing!
“App Smashing is the process of using multiple apps to create projects or complete tasks. App Smashing can provide your students with creative and inspired ways to showcase their learning and allow you to assess their understanding and skills. By introducing your students to a core of key apps, giving them the parameters of the project, and supporting them as they learn and create, you will very quickly be facilitating App Smashing in your classroom. The term App Smash was coined by Greg Kulowiec (@gregkulowiec on Twitter), who shares much of his work and thinking on his website. It is such a hot topic in education that App Smashing even has its own Hashtag – #AppSmash”
