Using iPad for Teaching and Learning – part 1: Basic
In the last few years, Apple's iPad has emerged as a powerful tool for engaging students in the classroom and for educators to produce teaching and learning resources. As the iPad continues to evolve along with other mobile media devices, the way educators teach and the way students learn will significantly change for good! However, while the iPad is brilliantly designed and easy to use, most people, including educators, are only harnessing a small fraction of the productive potential of the device. With all of the amazing apps available and the ever faster network connectivity, educators can do much more with an iPad than they can with a laptop.
This workshop is designed for beginners. The aim of this workshop is to demonstrate the practical application of the Apple iPad in an educational setting. The instructor will demonstrate, using real examples, how to leverage iPad as a tool to CREATE and PRODUCE teaching and learning materials.
Once you have seen the ‘power’ or utility of iPad and you have acquired the ‘know-how’, I can assure you that when you look back you will say ‘How could I live without the iPad’! Unbelievable how much we can do with a thin slate of metal and shiny glass!
