    I really like this article because I see a lot of this in my placement this semester. More children are wanting to participate due to the technology, which i think is great. Plus its a hand on tool, so the children don't get bored with the traditional ways of teaching by lecturing.

iPads in the Classroom are Changing the Face of Education | Mac|Life - 0 views

  • In the Auburn School District, administrators are using the iPad in controlled areas to prove its efficacy in raising literacy rates and teaching mathematical skills.
  • In the study, half of the 16 kindergarten classrooms were randomly assigned iPads to use for nine weeks, and they showed increased improvement results over the non-iPad classrooms
  • “The iPad had interesting possibilities in terms of helping students access what they know [while interacting] in a very different way with material and information.”

    This article is about integrating ipads into the classroom.I found this article to be very interesting because Fairfield County is wanting to adopt ipads in their school district, and I wont lie I was very hesitant on that idea, but after reading this and seeing the extensive studies that have been done, I think it could be very beneficial.
