iPad : New Age Technology
One of the newest forms of technology being implemented into classrooms. Instead of purchasing computers, several schools are purchasing iPads. Students can do the same functions of a computer on a iPad. Its simple to use and fun for students considering it is a touch screen but there is a keyboard if students feel more comfortable with that. Teachers can use this as well considering all of the hi-tech applications now provided on the iPad such as rosters, grade books, and the web. The iPad would be easy to use with other technology sources such as the elmo and SMART Board.
