"This week, Grade 5 began a unit on Volume, Capacity and Surface Area. On a weekly basis, I take combined groups from the 4 grades consisting of the higher achievers, while the classroom teachers concentrate on the mainstream group and students needing more individual instruction to achieve success. I made a conscious decision this week to focus on using iPads with my group to explore both volume/capacity as well as surface area."

"Even the maximum volume on the iPad can sometimes seem a little quiet, which has prompted many of us to perform thet tried-and-true 'cup your hand over the speaker' trick that gets us a little more sound -which works really well for a quick video clip but isn't terribly practical or comfortable for more than a few seconds."

"For the past two days, I've had my 7th graders working on a screencasting project. We're currently working in a unit focused on prisms and calculating the surface area and volume of prisms. I gave each pair of students a rectangular prism (a box of some sort), and had them measure its dimensions, calculate the surface area and volume of the prism, and screencast their work--complete with pictures of each of the 3 views of the prism as well as their narration of their work."

"ll of those iPads will eventually be discarded in some form, however, and if they're not recycled and disposed of properly, that massive volume of electronic waste could seriously affect our planet. With that in mind, Sortable has produced a fantastic infographic putting it all in perspective."

It began with a styrofoam coffee cup; you could call it the first koostik. I was curious to see if fitting a little megaphone to the bottom of my iPhone would passively amplify the volume of the external speaker. It did, but it wasn't much to look at. For a year after that first experiment, I made dozens of prototypes in wood in my home workshop. With each new piece I was getting a little closer to the goal of a balance between aesthetics and functionality.

While only 18% of all iPhone apps downloaded are paid, the current annual sales of $340+ million cannot be ovelooked. Moreover, Yankee Group's estimate of that number rising to $1B in just two years speaks volumes about the ways our world is changing. The presence of smart phones will grow four fold in as many years to numbers that will have everyone connected wirelessly with each other and to every content source around the world in real time.
