Tablets can be used creatively in the classroom to engage students and prepare them for the digital world. When using tablets, students find learning more interesting and creative as they communicate more and work more independently. It is important to have the right virtual learning environment, such as Edmodo, to facilitate communication and sharing between students and teachers. Content creation apps on tablets allow students to produce ebooks, videos, presentations and more, helping to develop skills relevant outside the classroom. As technology becomes more important, tablets are being incorporated into more European classrooms.

One of the key elements of an
effective content creation project
in your class is to have students
develop a piece of content that has
relevancy and meaning beyond

content for a local charity camp.
