    This site is designed especially with the young learner in mind with its age-appropriate content and emphasis on visual and auditory learning. Glossopedia is the kind of site that you can leave open for students to explore and find a fast fact of the day, find their favorite image, or video Glossopedia Categories Geography and Places Nature and the Environment Technology Animals Earth and Space People and Cultures Human Body Chemistry Natural Forces This site is simple and visually pleasing. The font size is great for young learners. Words are hyperlinked to an audio pronunciation that is a real person, speaking really slowly at first then more quickly, and finally the written meaning of the word. Images and photos have a print button prominently displayed.

  • These devices were designed to have one or two at home, not 30 in a classroom.
  • Because of the personal nature of the iOS, moving presentations or word processing documents from a shared iPad to linked storage is difficult.
  • When teachers want to get new apps, it's not simple to put them on iPads for students.
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • No support for Flash websites is a big minus,
  • Access to quality digital textbooks proved the biggest challenge at Avery Middle School. The iPad doesn't provide a way to play a CD, and most of the textbook publishers weren't ready or interested in providing digital alternatives.
  • The iOS 4.2 release does allow users to print from iPads — as long as they have an AirPrint-enabled printer. To overcome this challenge, Wells used a plug-in that allows any printer to be compatible with AirPrint. While the printing process is slow and wonky, it does the job.
  • the device is a tool in a student's arsenal.
  • “The device itself can’t replace good teachers, it can’t replace good curriculum, it can’t replace good classroom instruction,” Wells said.
  • On the student survey, 74 percent said they preferred laptops for these three reasons: Typing is easier They can keep multiple windows open and switch between them more easily on the laptops They can move documents and information between class and home easier than they can on a shared iPad
  • "You wouldn't believe what we just did today." Some teachers place study questions and curriculum goals on a blog so students can find their assignments. Others embed videos, make e-books using the open standard EPUB (short for electronic publication), and create individual blogs where students respond to literature they read.
  • “It allows them to be more like an orchestra conductor working with this section and then that section.”
