This document discusses using iPads in education. It begins with an introduction to iPad fluency - moving from being skilled at using basic iPad functions, to being literate in using specific apps for tasks, to fluency where skills are unconscious and tasks are effortlessly combined. Sections provide tips for getting to know the iPad, increasing app knowledge through sources of new app information, apps for specific tasks like reading, multimedia, collaboration and creation. Apps are categorized for teaching different subject areas and cognitive skill levels based on Bloom's taxonomy. The document emphasizes that iPads provide ubiquitous access to information and resources for students, and their intuitive interface allows all students to access technology.

6. There's an old
Wayne Gretzky
quote that I love. 'I
skate to where the
puck is going to be,
not where it has
been.' And we've
always tried to do
that at Apple.

7. Ubiquitous Access to Technology
Underscores the essential role technology
plays in 21st century life and work and,
consequently, the role that it must play in
learning. Students and educators need
24 / 7 access to information, resources, and
technologies that engage and empower
them to do background research,
information and resource gathering, and
data analysis, to publish with multiple media
types to wide and varied audiences, to
communicate with peers and experts, and to
gain experience and expertise in
collaborative work.

know what to do next Ian Jukes

14. A Fluent iPad User Knows how to…
connect tasks effortless together (ex. creating

the ability to create and communicate your creation is one of the main
characteristics of fluency

Internet, to produce and publish
writing and to interact and
collaborate with others.” CCR.W.6

Why is the iPad
so suited for
student use?
•Children think with their fingers. The iPad is an intuitive
interface that allows users of all abilities to access the
technology to it's fullest.
•Affordability- with so many apps being available for $.99
teachers are empowered to acquire, explore and provide
diverse and current software for their students.
•Universal Design- Everyone benefits from using an iPad.
When using it to foster independence in the school and
broader community, students not only want to but are able
to without standing out from their peers.

18. Universal Design for Learning
is a set of principles for curriculum
development that give all individuals
equal opportunities to learn.
UDL provides a blueprint for creating
instructional goals, methods, materials,
and assessments that work for
everyone--not a single, one-size-fits-all
solution but rather flexible approaches
that can be customized and adjusted
for individual needs.

19. Why iPad? –
Thoughts
From the
EdTechTeacher
Team

20. …the ability to create and manage digital
content with and for the iPad, the role of
the teacher has the potential to change.
Schools are starting to see these devices
as change agents simply because they
provide educators with an easy tool
through which they can attempt to
transform their classes. With iPads, it’s
possible to re-invision the role of the
teacher to be less of a coach and more of
a curator of information.

21. The device shouldn’t be looked at as a
computer, because it isn’t…
it is more than that.
Mobile recording device (audio & video)
Editing device (audio, video, images & text)
Publishing platform (blogs, websites, video,
audio and screencasts to YouTube)
Digital Notebook
Digital Research Platform

22. The iPad is instant. You can use the iPad for 10
minutes in class, slide it under your chair for a
discussion, pop it back open again. You can fit
a book or piece of paper and an iPad on a
desk. It doesn’t block your view of someone’s
face. If you plug them in the night before, they
will last all day.
These things may seem trivial, but teaching is
in many ways a battle against time and tablets
allow much more seamless transition between
tech-on and tech-off activities.
