iPad apps that can be used in education

My name is Merv Stapleton and I am an e-Learning Advisor with the
JISC RSC Northern. This site has been created as a way of bringing educational apps to the attention of our supported learning providers.
All of the apps listed on this site have been tested by me and/or recommended by both other RSC colleagues and educationalists. As I only have access to an iPad, I will not be posting apps that sit on other platforms (e.g. Android) - but there may well be other versions of the apps I post available.

Vernier Video Physics for iOS brings physics video analysis to the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad.
Capture, Analyze, and Share.
Take a video of an object in motion, mark its position frame by frame, and set up the scale using a known distance. Video Physics then draws trajectory, position, and velocity graphs for the object. Share video, graphs and data to Facebook, your photo library and to your computer running Vernier’s Logger Pro software.
Video Physics is perfect for physics students and instructors. Perform on-the-go analysis of interesting motions. Measure the velocity of a child’s swing, a roller-coaster, or a car. Or, take a video of a basketball free throw shot. Video Physics will display the path of the ball and provide graphs of Y vs X as well as the X and Y position and velocity as a function of time.
Video Physics is intended for use in physics education. The video analysis done in Video Physics is a useful technique for studying two-dimensional kinematics. You can do even more with Vernier’s Logger Pro ...
