SchoolTechnology.org | Tech Integration Ideas for Elementary Schools 1:1 iPads in Elementary Part 2 – Setting up the Carts My, how things have changed. Last year, it took me weeks to push 60 iPads out to my building. This year, it took me less than a week to push out 140 iPads!

While I could use Configurator to manage and supervise every single thing on all of the iPads, I didn’t particularly want to. First up, here’s the steps for how we got the apps on teacher laptops ready to go: Spend the summer examining apps we’d used in the past, thinking about what we’d want to do with our students, and refining a list of apps to put on the iPads.Help teachers set up iTunes on their computers and create their own school-based iTunes accounts.

Converting YouTube to iPad Video If you need to convert a YouTube file to an iPad Video you can embed in Keynote, one of the best options is the app iCab Mobile, which is an alternative browser to Safari. By pressing and holding while a YouTube video is playing, you can download it, and the you can later save it to your photo roll. Remember that videos for Keynote for the iPad have to come out of your Photo Roll. Yes, this makes no sense (shouldn't movies come from Movies?), and I've shared this with the head of iOS app development at Apple directly. Still…if you want to add a movie to Keynote, as of November 2012…it comes out of the Photo Roll. Strictly speaking, taking video off of YouTube is illegal, but if you want to have a file for times when you do not have the Internet present (many schools), it is a logical solution (It also works well if a TV series is on YouTube and you want that series on your son's iPod Touch for a long car ride–just saying).
