You are so right Michelle, We may start out at substitution but we need to think about redefining learning with the iPad #1stchat

In reply to @mflicek1

lekadegroot - Moderator Nov 6 @ 8:12 PM EST

A1 I think at school there is always a purpose for using iPads. It could be creating, exploring, practicing skills. #1stchat

KLirenman Nov 6 @ 8:12 PM EST

I think it's key that iPad is used in schools as a tool for learning vs a tool for entertaining like it's used in many homes. #1stchat

FirstAtBat Nov 6 @ 8:12 PM EST

Also reading and researching. #1stchat

A1 As a T we have to think of authentic purpose for learning. iPads are tools to deepen students' learning. #1stchat

tracey_bleakley Nov 6 @ 8:13 PM EST

Using for learning gives Ss another way to share and create, instead of just practicing skills and playing games #1stchat

KLirenman Nov 6 @ 8:14 PM EST

Here comes Question 2 #1stchat

mrswideen Nov 6 @ 8:14 PM EST

I hope that introducing the iPad in a purposeful way at such a young age will help our students see the iPad differently at home #1stchat

McMains1st Nov 6 @ 8:16 PM EST

A1- I think it's important to teach Ss that iPads can be a tool for learning not just games. #1stchat

KLirenman Nov 6 @ 8:16 PM EST
