Death of the IWB? | Australian Teacher Magazine - No.1 national education sector public... - 0 views

  • This iPad mirroring is the important bit. It means that your screen is now interactive again. Not interactive by coming up and touching the screen (I’ve never been able to work out why on earth you would want that functionality with older students anyway!?), but interactive through mirroring any number of tablet devices in the hands of the students and teachers in the room.
  • The most recent iPad 2s I purchased were around $363. That would mean each class with these LCD screens could also receive an extra 13 iPads – that’s roughly enough for half the students in the class.
  • So, lets summarise: school administrators can choose to continue purchasing IWBs for between $5000 and $9000. Or, for the same price, they can get a mobile big screen LCD, with no ongoing globe or servicing costs; a Mac Mini (or Apple TV as another way cheaper way to mirror iPads on the screen); and iPads for around half the class.

The Innovative Educator: 5 Rewards of Teaching Young Students to Blog - 0 views

  • Many parents work but would love to volunteer in some way. Last year, I asked parents to become “virtual volunteers” for our blogs. A virtual volunteer is a person who supports the blog by commenting back to students. This type of interaction helps strengthen the home-school connection and makes the comment sections more engaging.
