Some of these apps illustrate the power of the iPad. These Shakespeare
in Bits are the perfect combination of cool graphics and slick
infotainment that many teachers are looking for to get their students
excited about their subject. The comic feel of these apps doesn't take
away from the power of the message or the human tragedy of the
Shakespeare texts but what it does do, is to provide an entry point for
students that are not familiar with the language or the concepts.
These are expensive but many schools would only study one Shakespeare text. It might be that the teacher buys it and uses a data projector as a warm up activity. Couple these with some of the free apps and you can create an interesting, authentic and comprehensive Shakespeare experience.
