"My school was lucky enough to get a class set of iPads (unless you have a class with over 30 students), and I was lucky enough to be the one in charge of looking after them. Since I am the one in charge of them and the one who really pushed to get them, it seems necessary that I make the most out of these devices. To do this, I have made them a daily part of my grade 12 class, and am currently using them daily with my grade 9 and 10 locally developed class. It has been about three weeks since the start of the semester and the start of my use of iPads in the classroom so I thought I would take the time to reflect on them."

"There's no disputing the fact that iPhones and iPads are very sought after devices, but the price of owning these gadgets can be very costly, especially when Apple charges over $600-$700 for 32GB and 64GB models. So many customers end up getting a 16GB iPad, but what do you do you when start running out of iPad memory space? Or another important question is, do you even need more than 16GB, especially in the era of cloud storage and syncing?"

"There are painting and drawing apps that include a variety of brushes, pens or pencil tips. Some offer each option for an additional charge. Others, offers a list of pen divided down by pen colors. In the case of MyBrushes, you have 100 different drawing and painting tip styles to choose from, and an almost unlimited number of color options. To make things really exciting, MyBrushes for the iPad is in the iTunes store for FREE right now. "

"While Apple has made it easy for iOS users to turn their personal photos into holiday cards with the Cards app, it's still got a slim collection of templates and needs a little more polishing. Here are three free apps that basically offer the same services as the Cards app, though bear in mind that these apps do eventually charge you to send off physical greeting cards to your loved ones."

"Apple's iPad has an impressively long battery life. You can keep your iPad going for about 12 hours before it will need a recharge. Depending on how long you've had your device, you have probably already noticed some activities that drain battery more than others. If you are planning on spending a lot of time outdoors this summer, you may want to think about how to keep your iPad's battery charged for as long as possible. Below are 10 simple tricks to help extend your battery's life, aside from the obvious of not streaming HD movies while sitting in your car and using the 4G network."

" Take a look at the RCA USB Wall Plate Charger, a gadget which does exactly what it says on the label. The charger is simple, and all the better for it. Round back is a standard 3-prong plug, which mates with any grounded socket in your or anybody else's home. On the front of the rather utilitarian-looking box is a pass-through three-pin socket and a pair of USB ports. One of these ports will supply 2.1 amps of juice to charge the thirsty iPad, or you can hook up two of any other USB-powered device."

"The new AppleCare+ plan will cover up to two incidents of accidental damage, with a $49 charge for service. That means if you drop your iPad and shatter the screen, or accidentally dunk it in the bathtub, Apple will repair it or replace it, no questions asked, for a $49 fee."

"But there's one thing app users have discovered: there are apps and there are apps. Some will invariably be single-function duds. At $1, it's not much of a risk (though it does add up if apps are indiscriminately charged). The bigger question is this: Would consumers (parents) be willing to make the ideological jump to paying more for a quality educational app? Maybe - if they knew what goes into making it."

"The 'iPad Journey' continues at Spring Cottage Primary School with the introduction of 16 iPads in Key Stage 1, 16 iPads in Key Stage 2, both with a syncing/charging trolley and 63 iPod touches for children in Year 6. "
