iPad Basics for Teachers - iPad Tools to Use Straight Out of the Box
I have been lucky enough to be able to use iPads in my classroom since I began teaching five years ago. One thing that surprises me with a lot of teachers that I talk to is that they aren't really sure where to start with the iPad or how to use it with their students. Similarly, teachers can be unsure of what apps they need to install and can be confused by the variety in the App Store, especially when it comes to education.
This got me thinking about the basics of iPad and what we can do with them right out of the box. Instead of worrying about what apps you need to download right away, check out what you can do with what is already included on your iPad. You might just discover that you don't need to download anything else.
In this post, I'll cover some great iPad tools to use with your students. You'll find more information about the free Apple apps in an upcoming post.
Check it out, Dan has some wonderful information: http://www.ponderingdan.com/2019/11/ipad-basics-for-teachers-ipad-tools-to.html?m=1
