Story Creator is a wonderful iOS app for digital storytelling that I found out about from Sue Gorman. This app allows users to create interactive books that contain: audio, video, text, and images. One of my favorite features is that it helps students learn how to read by highlighting text as it is read.
Stack the States is a wonderful iOS app for learning about different facts and shapes of the 50 US states. The game is simple in where a student tries to answer a question about a state and then stack them up to reach a "finish line" (think Tetris) Once the line is a hit the user moves on to the next board. This game helps teach students about the: US capitals, nicknames, state shapes, Geography, and more.
Quadblogging is a new term/concept that I just found out about on Twitter. This is a great concept that has 4 schools blogging in a cycle that helps people view and comment on students blogs. The way this works is once a class/user signs up they get entered into a "quad" and then a moderator makes sure things run smoothly. Classes/students will start blogging from a school while others view and comment. The following week another school/class will then blog and others will read/comment and the cycle goes on until all 4 schools/classes have blogged.
