iPads in the Classroom
or Tablets in the Classroom
The Next Big Thing?
Students don't realize they are learning!
What can you do with it?
Teachers and students can also use the iPad to interface with one another as a means of classroom management. Assignments can be explained, completed and turned in all from the iPad.
Finally there are apps already created specifically for education with hundreds more being developed each week.
More on apps
Here are some samples to check out.
I included the first to show that it is not just for technology related subjects. The next two are lists of apps in an interesting format. The first has apps that can be tied to the various concepts of Bloom's Taxonomy and the following one is a more or less "essentials" list for teacher apps. The last one is a site that catalogs YouTube videos on "how to use" many of the educational apps.
Introducing iPads to the students
It doesn't have to be Apple!
