LINGUIST List 22.3330 Mon Aug 22 2011 Qs: iPad apps for teaching linguistics Editor for this issue: Brent Woo <bwoolinguistlist.org> New! Visit LL's Multitree project for over 1000 trees dynamically generated from scholarly hypotheses about language relationships:             http://multitree.linguistlist.org/ We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate. In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have taken the trouble to respond to the query. To post to LINGUIST, use our convenient web form at http://linguistlist.org/LL/posttolinguist.cfm. Directory         1.     Thomas McFadden , iPad apps for teaching linguistics Message 1: iPad apps for teaching linguistics Date: 22-Aug-2011 From: Thomas McFadden <thomas.mcfaddenuit.no> Subject: iPad apps for teaching linguistics E-mail this message to a friend The MA students in our Syntax I and Phonology I will have iPads to use in their courses this semester. They'll be using them to read papers for the course that are available in PDF format, but we would like to make even better use of the technology if possible. It seems to me that the iPad touch interface could be used to create Apps for doing things like constructing trees, reordering and testing OT constraints and things like that. In my searches thus far, I haven't found any such Apps, so I'm turning to this list: does anyone know of Apps for the iPad created specifically to do or teach linguistics? Does anyone have experience using more general iPad Apps to do things that could be useful in an introductory syntax or phonology course? I will of course compile a list of any resources I hear about and repost it to the list. thanks and best, Tom McFadden Linguistic Field(s): Discipline of Linguistics                             General Linguistics                             Phonology                             Syntax Read more issues|LINGUIST home page|Top of issue Page Updated: 22-Aug-2011       About LINGUIST    |   Contact Us       While the LINGUIST List makes every effort to ensure the linguistic relevance of sites listed on its pages, it cannot vouch for their contents.
