Let me repeat than read the entire story and look as the examples, instructions and COMMENTS.
And as Silvia says "Upgrade a traditionally taught vocabulary project, for example creating a dictionary of the weekly vocabulary words." That is what we are going to do using Pic Collage on the iPad. The example show is for very you children, but I am sure you will be able to get the idea.
Choose not less than 10 vocabulary words in your content area or from any vocabulary word lists. Make a Visual Vocabulary using the Pic Collage app like the example. Of course, older kids requires a bit more information that a picture and a word!!! So this has to be appropriate for 5th grade up.
Now, lets make another one, this time, FACTS/resources about a topic and more details using ZAPD.
Put your Pic Collage on your website and add a link to your Zapd.
