This is an interesting article and subsequent list from Fraser Speirs about Apps that are pushing the boundaries around iOS 5. Some of these Apps are the obvious ones and not all of them are specifically educational but it makes for a great list. It also gives us, the consumers a set of higher standards to be expecting from Apps developers. If we have the capability to use these new features then we should not just be expecting them we should be demanding them - especially those features that make the learning experience richer or deeper for our students.
I like all of these and would add one myself that I stumbled on the other day - Gamebook Adventures: Temple of the Spider God. Good for decision making and risk taking as well as a great book for getting boys to read. Enjoy!
