This document summarizes Becky Goddard's final project on iPad integration. It started as a way to share teaching resources but teachers requested tutorials on how to use iPads. Becky molded it into online staff development on technology and will expand it district-wide in 2013-2014. Teachers provided feedback that online videos, discussion forums, and flexible training were helpful but some still prefer face-to-face meetings. Going forward, Becky will implement more online training and work with other teachers to create a district technology model.

about how others were using the iPads.
• Still would like more time to “play” and get
comfortable.

directions.
