The iPad is a book-sized, touch screen computing device.

This 1.5 pound device has a surface that is a single piece of multi-touch glass with only one physical button.

What is iPad ?!!

Like iPhone and iPod Touch, the iPad is controlled by a multitouch display—a departure from most

previous tablet computers, which used a pressure-triggered stylus—as well as a virtual onscreen

keyboard in lieu of a physical keyboard. The iPad uses a Wi-Fi data connection to browse the Internet, load and stream media, and install software. Some

models also have a 3G wireless data connection which can connect to HSPA data networks. The device is managed and synced by iTunes on a

personal computer via USB cable.

Apple released the first iPad in April 2010, and sold 3 million of the devices

in 80 days.  During 2010, Apple sold 14.8 million iPads

worldwide, representing 75 percent of tablet PC sales at the end of 2010.

 By the release of the iPad 2 in March 2011, more than 15 million

iPads had been sold — more than all other tablet PCs combined.

Steven Paul "Steve" Jobs 

(born February 24, 1955 )is an American business magnate and inventor. He is the co-founder and chief executive officer ofApple Inc .

Jobs also previously served as chief executive of Pixar Animation Studios; he became a member of the board of directors of The Walt Disney Company in 2006

On March 2, 2011 Steve Jobs made an appearance at the iPad 2 launch event.

The iPad battery can last an entire school day.

With just a few taps, you can print your reports, documents, email, and photos right from your iPad to AirPrint-enabled

How to Use the iPad in the Classroom

With so much buzz being created by the iPad, educators are beginning to explore ways the handy

device can be utilized in the classroom. Students are very technologically savvy and the introduction of

the iPad into the educational environment may be a way to ignite student excitement for learning. The iPad is portable and easy to use, and there are a variety of ways that it can be incorporated into

classroom activities. With the iPad's ever-growing list of apps and capabilities, schools may soon be

looking to make the iPad a staple in every classroom.

Technology helps enhance the learning experience. An Apple iPad Learning Lab provides flexible and convenient access to technology, easily transforming any classroom into a digital learning environment.

Instructionsthings you'll need:iPad

•1Purchase a set of iPads for the class. Schools should be able to get a discount for purchasing the iPad in bulk. It may actually cost less than purchasing textbooks. Textbooks can be uploaded to the iPad for students to read. Rather than students carrying a book bag full of heavy textbooks, they would have access to all the books they need on one handy device.

•2Students can take notes using the iPad. Using a stylus, students write notes in the iPad's note-taking application. The program then converts the hand written notes to a computer font. Then the notes can be saved by date, subject or keyword for later review. This can eliminate messy, disorganized notebooks and students losing class notes.
