iPad apps - listening skills 

Podcasting
Listening/Radio
To assist you with your selection, particularly when there is a choice of apps that appear to be similar, I have attempted to oganise the apps according to a number of categories. Please note that that rankings such as usefulness and ease of use are subjective. If you do not agree with what I have written please let me know! ​

Listening/Radio
TinyTap has lots of applications in the languages classroom for practising listening skills. Look at the (free) examples in the market (access the market within the app) to give you some ideas for your own games with a voice over in the target language. You can use photos or drawings as a basis for these games.

Sentence Builder Free helps students to develop their aural and reading comprehension skills. Teachers can create lessons by selecting a picture from their iPad camera roll, writing out and narrating a sentence to describe it. Students are prompted to listen to the sentence and then recreate it in the correct word order. Teachers can put in additional words to make the selection process more challenging.
