19. Keep in mind
Personal (Remote Desktop) is literally a remote
control of your computer
Not an Interactive White Board replacement
control your IWB remotely from your iPad
use WITH your IWB, not instead of
not a replacement, an enhancement
Access your desktop anywhere on your network
depending on your district’s firewall, you might be
able to access your computer from home

20. Summary
$4.99 is well worth the expense to take full advantage
of the mobility of the iPad
$19.99 for the Whiteboard app is great if you have a
laptop & projector but no IWB
the iPad isn’t a replacement of other technology items,
it is an enhancement, a value added item
your whiteboard is a focal point of your classroom,
but now you don’t have to be at it to use it
Tuesday, July 9, 13

21. Closing
Your iPad is a mobile device, use Splashtop Personal
(Remote Desktop), or any VNC app, to make the most
immobile of technology, your Interactive White Board,
accessible from anywhere...
