Subject: iPad App Request: ShowTell by Amber for Classroom Visual Thinking & Assessment Dear [Principal / Technology Director / Department Head Name], I would like to request approval to deploy an educational iOS application called "ShowTell by Amber" across our classroom iPads [or for the Grade X iPad cart]. What ShowTell Does: ShowTell is a calm, distraction-free visual whiteboard and voice recording tool. It allows students to take a photo of their physical work (a math worksheet, a science lab specimen, a page from a book, or an art piece), annotate it with digital markers and educational stamps, and record their voice while explaining their reasoning step-by-step. Why It Fits Our Classroom & Curriculum: 1. Formative Assessment: Instead of just checking a numerical answer on paper, I can listen to a student's metacognitive explanation of how they solved the problem. 2. Low-Friction for Young Students: Unlike complex video editors, ShowTell is purpose-built for early childhood and elementary learners. There are zero menus to get lost in. 3. Supports Reluctant Writers: Students who struggle to write long paragraphs can articulate rich, thoughtful explanations using their natural speaking voice. Security, Safeguarding & IT Compatibility: • Zero Accounts / Logins: Students never enter usernames, passwords, or emails. It is completely shared-iPad friendly. • 100% Offline: Operates with zero internet connectivity. No audio or images are ever uploaded to cloud servers. • COPPA, FERPA & GDPR-K Compliant: Contains zero ads, zero trackers, and zero third-party analytics. • Apple School Manager & MDM Ready: Available directly in Apple School Manager (Bundle ID: com.sethideclercq.ShowTellByAmber) with automatic 50% Volume Purchase discount (VPP) for 20+ licenses ($2.49/device one-time, no subscription). You can review their official IT & Safeguarding Technical Specification here: https://showtell.sethideclercq.com/docs/school-safeguarding-guide.html Would it be possible to acquire and push licenses to our devices for the upcoming term? I would be delighted to demonstrate a 2-minute sample workflow if helpful. Thank you very much for supporting our students' creative visual learning!
