REMEMBER…

3 BIG RULES! 1. ONLY use these 5 tool guides mentioned to discover

new tools and how they can be applied.

2. With a bit of IMAGINATION AND CREATIVITY most tools can be used for multiple Intelligences, multiple 21st Century Literacies, and multiple levels of Bloom’s taxonomy.

3. NEVER FORGET THIS!

The Golden Rule?

“If you NEED A USER GUIDE to learn the basics of a Tool (App),

FIND ANOTHER ONE for Learning and Teaching!”

Empower Your Students!

Students create screencasts to share their ideas, work, problem solving process, etc.

How?

Create a generic teacher / class account for students to create.

When students create in generic account it is immediately viewable when the teacher logs into that account.

Students can create offline at home & upload when they return to school.

Student creations can be sorted into classes created by the teacher.

5 Critical Mistakes Schools Make With iPads

1. Focusing on content apps.

2. Lack of Teacher Preparation in Classroom Management of iPads.

3. Treating the iPad as a computer and expecting it to serve as a laptop.

4. Treating iPads like multi-user devices.

5. Failure to communicate a compelling answer to “Why iPads?“.
