  • "There will always be a focus in every school on equity and access," he added. "To make sure all students have a level playing field for learning."

  • "It's really a way of using the appropriate technology when it's necessary, but not for everything and not for every day. So they'll still be working with manipulatives, they'll still be building things, they'll still be writing things, but when they need the technology, it's there.
  • Other classes so far have used iPads for math assignments, to write and illustrate digital picture books, and create art. Delisi said it takes some planning to integrate the iPad into teaching plans and when done properly, it's a valuable tool. But it's just one tool of many that teachers will use. "There's nothing more important than a teacher knowing the curriculum and knowing the expectations they have of the students, that's really the key ... whether you have any technology or don't have any technology," Delisi said. "They see those expectations and say, 'Well, for certain things the technology will help my students and for other things it won't, so I won't use it."
