Specific apps allow for effective and engaging planning. Comic Life or Strip Designer can be used to storyboard ideas.
Toontastic’s user interface is designed around the planning structure of the narrative in which each scene is broken up into parts like setup, conflict and resolution.

Elizabeth ResnickThis is a great article about how iPads can be used with the writing process. It highlights best practices that teachers can follow in order to best leverage the technology, and suggests apps to support the process.

For too long we have seen the computer purely as a publishing tool. For me, the computer is far more effective as a writing tool.
-
as we move into Personalised Learning in the Age of Technology, it is time for us to break the shackles of traditional thinking regarding writing and technology. We can no longer afford to dwell on the negative impacts of spellcheck and copy/paste. Instead, let’s focus on the benefits.
-
will not have any impact on improving student writing if its use is not accompanied by innovative teaching backed by sound literacy principles and a change in attitude towards technology’s role in the writing process
-
Before trying to convince the doubters that the iPad can impact on student writing, we have to define what writing actually is.
-
the definition of writing is one word -communication
-
help our thinking processes
-
keep information for later
-
persuade
-
stories to tell
-
processes have to be explained
-
as teachers we have to rediscover the purpose of writing as pure communication
-
get past our obsession with the mechanics of writing
-
get children to communicate effectively, enjoying the experience and wanting to share what’s on their minds.
-
mind mapping properties
-
Pass the iPad around to fellow students or teachers and let them respond to your plan
-
we have to deepen the thinking at the planning stage beyond the dot point method.
-
Get the ‘spell check is bad’ mentality out of your head and teach kids to reflect on the errors that spell check has picked up while they write.
-
Reluctant writers are reluctant because they have to make so many changes to their handwritten writing
-
reluctant writers will be more willing to experiment and extend their writing.
-
Teach students to take their time. Teach them to review their writing as they write.
-
respond to feedback on sections
-
The drawbacks of the iPad keyboard ( which I have used to compose about 90% of these blog posts) actually slows me down enough that I can just write and review without doing a stack of drafts.
-
apps don’t create the text

Use Popplet to record ideas in separate blocks of ideas that can be rearranged in any order without the tedium of rewriting. Branch extensions of those ideas off the original using its mind mapping properties. Take snapshots with your iPad camera and import them into your Popplet to inspire your imagination visually.
-
Alternatively students could use Evernote or Notability in similar ways with the added bonus of audio recordings of thoughts and ideas they can use for their later writing. Students can import web clips of useful pictures, videos, information websites that support the research project they are compiling and have easy access to them when they start composing. They can use social bookmarking apps like Diigo, combined with the Diigo bookmarklet in Safari to collate links to websites related to their work.

This is a major shift in the way we have planned writing in the past and it will take a lot of good teaching to embed it into the practice of both students and teachers but I really believe we have to deepen the thinking at the planning stage beyond the dot point method. And yes I know they don’t have time to do this before a standardized writing test. But are we preparing them for 40 minute tests or instilling in them a lifelong love of writing?

Pass the iPad around to fellow students or teachers and let them respond to your plan without the need to scribble over your handwritten notes. They can alter the order of your ideas with a simple drag and drop, or pop a quick note in.

John PearceBefore trying to convince the doubters that the iPad can impact on student writing, we have to define what writing actually is.
A breakdown of genres, their processes and products
I’m not going to use some perfectly expressed term written by literacy professors to impress anyone. For me, the definition of writing is one word -communication, either with yourself or with others. We reflect in writing to help our thinking processes. We record in writing to keep information for later use. We write to persuade others to agree with us on a variety of issues. Many of us have stories to tell, either from real experiences or from the deep recesses of our imagination. Sometimes events and processes have to be explained. All of these examples are ways of communicating. -

Kathleen GormleyGreat blog on teaching writing using iPads--all the apps suggested are known to me and easy to use. Very reasoned piece.

-
the iPad will not have any impact on improving student writing if its use is not accompanied by innovative teaching backed by sound literacy principles and a change in attitude towards technology’s role in the writing process. If it just becomes yet another means of publishing student work, with new bells and whistles replacing WordArt,Clip Art and fancy borders, then we once again waste an opportunity for significant change in writing education.

StoryPatch is another option for junior grades that allows for guidance in planning and creating stories through a visual interface.
-
Using Spellboard, a spelling program app for the iPad, they can copy and paste their errors over to the app as they show up and store them for later work during spelling lessons in class. Far more effective than making a ton of errors that aren’t picked up until a teacher or spelling buddy corrects them. Reluctant writers are reluctant because they have to make so many changes to their handwritten writing and can’t be bothered rewriting the whole text all over again or writing a detailed text in the first place.
