iPads are an incredible tool in the elementary classroom! Using the iPad’s built-in features and a few high calibre apps, you can engage with content in interactive ways, find information in an instant, and leverage the ‘anywhere, anytime’ capabilities of this amazing device. In this introductory session, learn how to integrate the iPad into any subject area and provide opportunities for students to develop and demonstrate critical and creative thinking skills. A classroom with access to a few devices (as opposed to 1:1) is ideal for each of the projects discussed.
