Worth Buying an iPad for this app

If you are an elementary school teacher than this app is an awesome replacement for your anecdotal records of the past. Weve all tried stickies, clipboards, typing into the computer every night, and none work. This app allows you to enter the notes for each child, or groups of children, and file it by student, subject area and domain (which I have changed to be Learning Skills which is in-line with the Ontario curriculum).

Ive taken more notes in the four weeks that Ive been back in my classroom than in the past 10 years of teaching. The best part is that I can use my notes! Having this data at my finger tips was amazing for writing my progress reports. I had the child specific observations to add into every subject area.

I have shown this app to many teachers at my school since Ive started using it, and two have purchased iPads since then to use the app, and two more are planning on purchasing before Christmas.

My only criticism is that when I try to delete the domain names that are already inputted, the app crashes. So in my domains, I have the original four areas, that I dont use, plus the areas that Ive entered.
