iPad vs Kindle vs Netbooks vs Books: What's Best for Students? | AceOnlineSchools.com -... - 51 views

  • Textbooks
    • Todd Williamson
       
      Obviously talking about the collegiate level...middle school textbooks would be roughly $50 per class (~$200) and used for multiple years
  • 3G wireless for $130 plus $15 or $30 per month
    • Todd Williamson
       
      Also has wifi on all models
  • imagine not being able to listen to music or read an e-book while surfing the web
    • Todd Williamson
       
      By all accounts, the iPad will be running current iPhone OS 3.1 which does allow you to listen to music while doing other things...the rub will be creating a presentation in Keynote for iPad without direct access to the web for photos...or having to shut down Safari to check your Twitter client, etc.

    I think a big miss on this article is any discussion of content creation capabilities of netbooks and iPad. Kindle and Dead Tree books don't allow extensive content creation, the iPad has limited capabilities, but netbooks open up a whole range of creative possibility. Also, it's obvious this article is geared toward college students, not middle or high school.

Pros and Cons of the iPad in Education - 49 views

  • I’m hoping the iPad not being capable of multitasking might help me focus a little better
    • Todd Williamson
       
      Interesting perspective for younger students as well...
  • Lack of e-textbooks
  • I found it a lot easier to take an iPhone pic of a diagram the teacher drew on the board than attempt to recreate it in my notebook
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • No citation/equation support
  • I can see not being able to complete and submit a paper solely on the iPad.

      Interesting look at iPad in education on the college level...Will be interesting to see further reflections on using the iPad once it's actually available.

  • Bringing iPods and iPads into the classroom is a great way to give students access to learning tools. However, there are so many things to keep in mind to make the devices work smoothly in the classroom. While this list of dos and don'ts mainly addresses iPod touch the same advice goes for iPod touch and iPhone.
