Many US Schools Adding iPads, Trimming Textbooks| The Committed Sardine - 0 views

  •  
    "While iPads have rocketed to popularity on many college campuses since Apple Inc. introduced the device in spring 2010, many public secondary schools this fall will move away from textbooks in favor of the lightweight tablet computers. Apple officials say they know of more than 600 districts that have launched what are called "one-to-one'' programs, in which at least one classroom of students is getting iPads for each student to use throughout the school day."

IPads to Outpace Computers in Schools by 2016, Poll Says - 0 views

  •  
    ""Within the next five years, our respondents expect to have more tablets per student than they currently have computers" Munster said. The school districts represented in the poll have about 10 students per computer, but in the next five years, IT directors for school districts say they expect it to drop to about six students per iPad. Devices like the iPad are preferred over computers in the classroom because they provide more individualized learning than a traditional computer."

    Interesting idea. However, if Apple wants to become ubiquitous at the K-12 level, beyond private and charter schools, they must come up with some kind of site licensing program for equipment and a core suite of starter apps.--something to compete with Google Docs and laptops which are becoming entrenched at K-12.

Considerations Before Deploying iPads and iPods « Socratech Seminars - 1 views

  •  
    "While I am a strong advocate of using the tablet in the classroom, there should be some strategic deployment plans before putting it in the hands of students. Rather than sounding as the expert, I have decided to format the considerations through questions I would ask before purchasing. This list by no means fits everyone's model, but will hopefully serve as a guideline to planning out iPad/iPod/tablet/mobile device deployments."
  •  
    These are thought provoking questions and an excellent checklist for both administrators and IT admins.
