    "Using an iPad is simple due to its intuitive interface, elegant touch interface, and user-friendly operating system. Below we've listed 23 different tasks a teacher should be able to perform with their iPad. We've tried to focus on the basics, along with some typical tasks a teacher may be required to complete. We've also (roughly) arranged them from less complicated to more complicated, so consider yourself an Unofficial iPad "Basic Hacker" if you can get to the bottom. For more complex iPad tasks and functions, we're doing a follow-up post. Stay tuned!"

    "Augmented reality allows someone to add another layer to an existing image. For example, imagine holding your phone over a poster on the wall as if you were going to take a photo of that poster, and then instantly a video starts playing to offer you additional information about that particular poster. Pretty cool, right? The first time it happens, it seems like magic."

  • Every generation since the time of Socrates and Plato, including our parents, has looked at the next generation, including ours, and said, “What’s wrong with those kids?” That’s the thing—there’s nothing wrong with these kids. They’re just neurologically different, and that’s why they see the world and engage with it differently than we do.

  • this new era is accompanied with, and characterized by, a new information landscape. This new Internet landscape will challenge, disrupt, and overpower the print-oriented one that came before it. It will not completely obliterate that which preceded it, but it will render it to a subsidary, rather than primary, level of influence.

    "Technology has altered human physiology. It makes us think differently, feel differently, even dream differently. It affects our memory, attention spans and sleep cycles. This is attributed to a scientific phenomenon known as neuroplasticity, or the brain's ability to alter its behavior based on new experiences. In this case, that's the wealth of information offered by the Internet and interactive technologies. Some cognition experts have praised the effects of tech on the brain, lauding its ability to organize our lives and free our minds for deeper thinking. Others fear tech has crippled our attention spans and made us uncreative and impatient when it comes to anything analog. "
