<p>DCMO BOCES has several dozen schools using iPads for walkthrough observations. You may want to contact them - particularly Phil Sheridan the director of IT.</p>

<p>That sounds very interesting for sharing and collaborating. I am not sure about what kinds of data you have been thinking about collecting and for what purpose. I am aware of the fact that Media-X.com has developed a few mobile device-based applications to capture data of various natures as a walk-through or observation tools. Of course, that is a commercial set of products. That may provide a reference point for local and home-grown app development.</p>

<p>I would suggest that you look at the App FormConnect. It allows you to create personal data bases that you can use to record a walk through. The same thing can be done with Bento but the problem with Bento is that it is only compatible for transfer with the MAC and you have to but the Mac version for $50.00. FormConnect allows you to export in a number of formats including excel. Of course, you have to create your own templates. But that is the advantage in that it is customized to…</p>
<p>I would suggest that you look at the App FormConnect. It allows you to create personal data bases that you can use to record a walk through. The same thing can be done with Bento but the problem with Bento is that it is only compatible for transfer with the MAC and you have to but the Mac version for $50.00. FormConnect allows you to export in a number of formats including excel. Of course, you have to create your own templates. But that is the advantage in that it is customized to your needs and you don't need an internet connection to record the observation only to transfer it which you can do later. FormConnect is easy to use with no big learning curve. It allows you to make comments rating and drop downs. It is not perfect, but nothing is and there are no subscription fees. Another alternative is to use the forms capability in Numbers. (iWork's) I created a few observation templates and they work, but them switched over to using FormsConnect. </p>

<p>The admin team at my school is also looking to create a walkthrough form. I should say, I am working on a form that I will share with the rest of the team. We are just deciding on the elements that should go into the form that will provide an accurate snapshot based on our particular needs. On a different note, I found that there are some walkthrough templates in Google Form that you may want to take a look at. In any case, feel free to reach out so we may collaborate and share ideas.</p>
