"I was recently at Our Lady of the Angels Rouse Hill doing a workshop with them in creating iBooks using iBooks Author. The Principal Eva La Rocco and the teachers saw the main benefit for the software as a way of students demonstrating their own understanding and knowledge by creating an iBook that incorporated all their work. The focus being for the students to create content rather than it being pushed to them via a teacher created iBook textbook."

"I've spent many nights testing apps. Many of those nights became the next day. As much as I love my iDevices, they can sometimes hinder my sleep. It's hard to put down a device with a beautiful Retina display. Fortunately, app synergy is versatile. Yes, it often keeps me up at night. For this week, however, it also put me to sleep. Here is how your iPad or iPhone can serve you, even when it's time to put them down."
