Mobile Application Assignment

My students are using mobile applications on their devices to complete English assignments. For one assignment, students will use the Twitter mobile app to create a post showing their perspective on how the media portrays a social issue and how it affects them. For another, students will collaborate in groups using the Google Slides app from Google Drive to create a presentation summarizing the novel Animal Farm after reading it as a class. The teacher will evaluate students' use of the assigned mobile apps to complete the tasks.
