The following 5 apps are designed for just that, and help take advantage of the iPad as a collaborative tool. "

    So you have decided to flip your classroom this year and invert your instruction method hoping to get more student engagement and boost their productivity levels.

How One Classroom Actually Used iPads To Go Paperless (Part 1: Research) | Edudemic - 1 views

  • The 4 Goals A few of the goals that we outlined prior to the research process included: - Students will crowd-source their research to a collective research group.- Students will incorporate varied media types into their research: web based text, traditional text, audio and video.- Students will work collaboratively with their teacher and classmates on their research and writing process.- Students will become proficient researching and writing in a digital environment.
  • Diigo and the iPads proved to be particularly helpful during the process of researching and annotating.

  •  
    "SAN ANTONIO - Several Texas A&M professors know something that generations of teachers could only hope to guess: whether students are reading their textbooks." They know when students are skipping pages, failing to highlight significant passages, not bothering to take notes - or simply not opening the book at all.
