@brooks_jones: @DavidBFox The Bulletin is available only to #SCBWI members, but @LoreenLeedy may know if there's a public link #storyappchat

@PrincipalStorm: As principal I've been invited into classrooms as the guest reader. Should I read a book or share an iPad story app? PreK-5 #Storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:07 am

@MissMelodyKitty: @brooks_jones Thanks I will check it out #storyappchat

September 19, 2011, 1:07 am

@brooks_jones: @brooks_jones Yes, hope so! You're the best :) #storyappchat


September 19, 2011, 1:07 am

@iPad_storytime: @PrincipalStorm How about you read aloud from an iPad story app? #storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:08 am

@brooks_jones: @PrincipalStorm I'd probably use an iPad story app if the group is small (or if you can project it overhead) #storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:08 am

@LoreenLeedy: I don't know if any of the SCBWI bulletin is on their site: http://t.co/L6XFRh16 @brooks_jones @davidbfox #storyappchat

September 19, 2011, 1:08 am

@DavidBFox: @brooks_jones @Annie_Fox is a member... I'm sure she'd let me read it :-) We get the monthly magazine - is that what you mean? #storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:09 am

@iPad_storytime: @brooks_jones @PrincipalStorm Yes - if you can project the book, lots of research to show that makes great group storytime ... #storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:09 am

@brooks_jones: @DavidBFox Yes, exactly--I got mine yesterday! #scbwi #storyappchat

September 19, 2011, 1:11 am

@PrincipalStorm: @MissMelodyKitty I was thinking of using John Henry from @rukas but reading and showing may take too long. Maybe go 2x #Storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:11 am

@brooks_jones: I have a general statement, mostly for the people who will be reading the transcript: WE NEED MORE iBook REVIEW SITES #storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:11 am

@LoreenLeedy: @DavidBFox Re earlier convo, blog carnivals & #kidlit events like "Poetry Fridays" are good way to market ebooks & apps. #storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:12 am

@iPad_storytime: @PrincipalStorm You might want to pick something shorter and less of a video to really show off at storytime ... #storyappchat

@brooks_jones: We have several good app review sites, and several that focus on kid's apps, but none yet I know of that cover iBooks. #storyappchat

@brooks_jones: @PrincipalStorm John Henry is a great story by @RuckusMedia but might be a bit long--I think it lasts at least 20 mins #storyappchat

@iPad_storytime: @brooks_jones We are working on a digital-storytime.com/ibooks site for 2012, but need guest reviewers - interested? ;-) #storyappchat

September 19, 2011, 1:16 am

@iPad_storytime: @DavidBFox We figure our database structure is a good start, just need to decided on 'star categories' for iBooks ... ideas? #storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:16 am

@brooks_jones: @MoveableCode I thought so at first, but apps take longer to develop, esp. if all you are doing is a storybook #storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:17 am

@PrincipalStorm: @iPad_storytime @Brooks_jones suggestions on a story are welcome. Then I could provide feedback for multiple age groups #Storyappchat

@iPad_storytime: @DavidBFox Exactly - something that isn't just in my head - to have 'inter-rater' reliability U need clear standards/examples #storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:26 am

@teachwtechbrox: @DavidBFox @iPad_storytime I would agree, you would need to set clear standard for each star rating #storyappchat

@DavidBFox: @MoveableCode I also assume the font choice (and size) might depend if it's a beginning reader or for parents to read to kids #storyappchat

@YancyUnger: I like iMockups for app development as well. #storyappchat

@DavidBFox: @brooks_jones @LoreenLeedy just looked at about a dozen sample iBooks I downloaded and 95% used something like Times NR. #storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:44 am

@MoveableCode: @brooks_jones @DavidBFox Just remember kids are easily distracted. Fancy fonts will look nice but will interfere with reading #storyappchat

@mendicantraf: Just some details... @Demibooks Composer will be free to download for an intro period. #storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:44 am

@teachwtechbrox: from a spec ed tchers perspective, i like sans serif or century schoolbook b/c for beginning readers, looks more like letter #storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:45 am

@DavidBFox: Might be because that's one of the native fonts on an iPad. Harder to link/include your own font choice if it's not native. #storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:45 am

@MoveableCode: I think sparing use of cool fonts can add a lot, but the key word is "sparing"! #storyappchat
September 19, 2011, 1:45 am

@LoreenLeedy: However, re fonts it really does depend on project. Type probs: 2 small/big, lines 2 close together, 2 close 2 edge of screen #storyappchat

September 19, 2011, 1:45 am

@brooks_jones: @DavidBFox @MoveableCode Therefore, here are some good font choices: (choose Clean & Simple) http://t.co/4fWPSeU0 #storyappchat
