iPad for Teaching & Learning
Hi there, welcome to team iPad for Teaching & Learning! I'm most happy about the way fate or, more accurately, Pearltrees has brought us together in this collaborative and continuous effort to learn about the use of iPad in education. Truly, never has there been a more exciting time than in this age of iPad and other similar tech devices. Last year, back here in Singapore, the special education school where I teach won a local Outstanding Innovation Award for our pilot use of the iPad in our school. The award was jointly given by our Singapore Ministry of Education and National Council Of Social Services. That was truly a proud moment for my school! Still, magical as the iPad and other tablet devices may be, the way I see it remains the same as when I first started using the iPad in my teaching - the real magic is watching the faces of students, in my case students with moderate to severe intellectual disabilities, light up when they are using the iPad, be it during whole-group lessons or small-group table tasks. All of a sudden, learning has become so much more achievable even for those students with high-support needs. But that, my dear friends, is another tale for another day...till then, do let us continue to have fun exploring the uses of the iPad, be passionate in all that we do and last but not least remain ever ready and humble to share what we know as we never know the true extent even our smallest acts can impact another person out there. Cheers, Jeanie Jan 21

Apple has given the world a new tool. Being a visual person, who knows what I would have learned? I told a friend the other day that every child should be given one. How do you think we could work toward that? by Feb 7
Hi Jeanie, It would be great to be able collaborate with you and your school on a project. I am an ICT teacher from a comprehensive high school in Sydney, Australia. Our classes maybe able to communicate and collaborate through Edmodo. What do think? Katy by Jan 28
Thanks Jana! Most definitely, the opportunities offered by the iPad (would love to explore other kinds of touchscreen tablets eventually) for reaching out to students, regardless of age, neurotypical or special needs, are just limitless! Continue to have fun with your students; there is bound to be at least one app out there that will strike a chord with each and everyone of them! Cheers, Jeanie by Jan 22
Jeanie- great job on the iPad pt! I am a secondary educator, new to pt....seeing tons of opportunities to use with students. Cheers! Jana (designteach) by Jan 21
