Teaching with Evernote
So, I have been a huge fan of Evernote as a personal journal and note taking service. Here is a great article on teaching with it.

Economics
For the love of all that is holy and right in the world. Some one needs to get it through their thick heads (public school leadership) the importance of teaching basic economics and personal finance (yes and taxes too) to all K-12 students.

For the higher end of K-12 I would look at SpaceTime.

An app I like and my children like is Mathemagics - <http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mathemagics-mental-math-tricks/id306586847?mt=8]]>
Wolfram Algebra:

Wolfram Calculus:

Both allow a student to input a problem and see step by step how the answer (for example taking a derivative or expanding the product of two expressions) was derived.
