The iPad 2 and Apple TV … Ed Tech Industry Killer?
What would you rather get for your classroom, an iPad 2 and Apple TV or an Interactive Whiteboard? Are your teachers asking for Interactive Whiteboards? Hold on to that discussion and don’t answer until you know all of the possibilities! I think we now have the ability to put together a very highly effective digital classroom with the combination of iPad 2′s, a digital projector, and an Apple TV. All of this can be done at a fraction of the cost of most 21st century classrooms that have combined the use of Interactive Whiteboards.myIEPmeeting
Description myIEPmeeting helps parents and guardians effectively participate in their student’s Individualized Education Program (IEP) process. Works well with Iphone but is a hit or miss when it comes to the iPad... We have developed simple tools to help them: 1. Organize and gather information, 2. Monitor child’s progress and 3.I am often asked by new iPad owners which apps they should install first. That’s a tough question as it all depends on each individual and how they want to use their new device. There are literally hundreds of lists out there about the best iPad apps — especially since a lot of those are year-end lists. But even if you send these lists to the new user they have to wade through these lists and make decisions based on limited information — after all, they just got the iPad and may not realize how much they can do with this great device. So, instead of sending all these lists — I’m not going to mention any of them here — simply because all you have to do is search for “ Best iPad Apps ” on your favorite search engine — try an app called AppStart ! AppStart is a great app for finding the apps that fits your needs.
