I have been brainstorming ways I can utilize the Ipad for direct student use. I am planning to use the iPad as a document and video camera. I have needed an Elmo in the past and the potential to use the iPad for this seems possible. Using the camera function in conjunction with the, VGA cord and projector students could share their work with the entire class or use it as a presentation tool.
Also, the iPad could instantly makes student created videos easy to present to the class thus, eliminating transfer and compatibility issues.
I have also registered to attend an online session, “20 Free iPad Apps Educators Can’t Live Without!” that is to take place on Tuesday, February 7, 2012 from 2:30 to 3:00 Eastern Standard Time. The best part is the cost is free! Anyone can register for this session at: https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/176010170
I am really not familiar with Apple Apps and the educational benefits they have to offer. I am eager to attend this session to learn more about iPad apps that will help make my class more interesting and relevant to students.
