educlipper Social Web Clipper iPad app Gets Even More Great Features




Educlipper is a great, free app from a colleague of mine, Adam Bellow, that just keeps getting better. I've written about it before ( EduClipper social web clipper gets Updated with Some Great New Features ). It started as a way to clip and share online educational resources, but it has expanded to have a huge variety of features. Take a look and try it out. The iPad app just got some great new features.


We're super excited to share with you the new update 
for the eduClipper iPad app that was released today!
 
Here are some of the amazing new features in eduClipper Version 2.2
 
 
Whiteboard Recording
 
We love seeing what you create on eduClipper and students and teachers have both asked for the ability to do a whiteboard recording from within our app to eliminate extra steps when creating eduClips. So we are super excited to announce that you can now create whiteboard recordings as an eduClip from the "Add eduClip" page.  This is especially cool as students can capture their class work and then annotate and narrate right on top of it quickly and easily! Looking forward to seeing the great things you will share!
 

Enhanced Annotation Tools

Annotating on top of images (and the new Whiteboard tool) is a powerful part of eduClipper.  We are excited to have added new tools and enhanced other ones!  Now you can pinch-to-zoom in on images while annotating them, change the colors, fonts, thickness of lines, and move items around the screen.  This is a great way to capture student work and then add a layer of explanation on top of it to showcase methods, key ideas, or anything else the viewer might want to know. 

In-App Downloading of Clips

Want to save the awesome eduClip you just created back to your device or Airdrop it to a nearby computer? Well, now you can! Just look for the download icon when viewing any of your eduClips. 
 
New Notifications Center
Our new notifications center lets you easily see all notifications you've gotten on eduClipper - not just the most recent ones. 
Now you can search and explore all of them by loading the full-screen view from the icon on the notifications tab.
  
 
And there's a lot more too!
 
From new animations (which we really love), to the new caching system that will improve the overall app functionality and allow for off-line access, there are a lot of tweaks and enhancements under the hood of this new version that make it great!
 
Hope that you enjoy using this with your students and be on the lookout for more eduClipper news soon!
 
 
Happy Clipping,
Adam

eduClipper social web clipper gets Updated with Some Great New Features




educlipper


eduClipper is a great app from EduTecher Adam Bellow that provides a way to clip anything from the web and then share it with anyone.

It's free and allows you to clip and capture anything from the web including articles, links, videos, lesson plans and more. You then create a clipboard to organize what you have clipped and then you can share the clipboards with students, colleagues, the public or just keep it for yourself. Students can use it too and the clipboards are searchable. You can also share your clipboards via different social networks.

The social sharing aspect is what makes it different from other web clipping services and apps. You share what you have clipped with others and people can comment and discuss the clip.

It was recently updated with some great new features...


Teacher and Student Accounts : We are excited to announce teacher and student accounts. Teachers can easily set up classes of students and create eduClipboards of content to share with whole classes or groups of learners.
Teachers can also change settings to make eduClipper more or less restrictive for the whole class or individual learners based on school or classroom policies. There’s a lot there - and we really want to put you in the driver’s seat when it comes to how you wish to use a powerful tool like eduClipper with your kids.


                                                               New Bookmarking Tool : We are really proud of the new eduClip It button. This bookmarking tool lets you clip literally any type of content and bring it into eduClipper as an eduClip. It is smooth and fun to use!



Collaborative Clipboards : Sharing resources is great - but creating collaborative clipboards with users on a topic is an even better way to offer real-time collaboration in classes for students or teachers. Great for educators connecting with colleagues to create the ultimate resource board as well as for students to join each other and curate the best resources for academic or interest-based learning.

Citations : Being a “good digital citizen” starts with citing sources and we have worked with EasyBib to generate citations for all eduClipped web content. A quick and painless way to annotate your eduClips.
Those are just a few quick things - but in short... everything is 100% more awesome and we are excited to tell you that this is just the tip of the iceberg. We have a lot more up our sleeve and you should be on the lookout for more cool news soon.
Take a look at the new site and give it a shot - we know you will love it!
And if you have questions or comments - we are all ears!
eduClipper exists to help bring education forward and we are eager to hear your feedback.

eduClipper is a new app from EduTecher Adam Bellow that I wrote about last month. eduClipper is now available to use to those who signed up earlier. It provides a way to clip anything from the web and then share it with anyone.

It's free and allows you to clip and capture anything from the web including articles, links, videos, lesson plans and more. You then create a clipboard to organize what you have clipped and then you can share the clipboards with students, colleagues, the public or just keep it for yourself.

The social sharing aspect is what makes it different from other web clipping services and apps. You share what you have clipped with others and people can comment and discuss the clip.

You can still request an invite too: http://www.educlipper.net/

Adam has a nice YouTube video that describes eduClipper in more detail:
