Settings
There are so many things you can customize on your iPad. Explore the Settings app, specifically these groups in the left sidebar and see what you can do!
- General: Accessibility, Side Switch, Auto-Lock
Within Accessibility, did you know that you can turn on VoiceOver or speech and have text read aloud? You can also turn on Guided Access to keep the iPad in a single app. Try it out! Text can be enlarged or shown in bold. Closed captions can be turned on for videos. Would these options be helpful to some of your students?
