Learn how accessories can multiply the effectiveness of the classroom iPad. Is there a case that will protect an iPad if a student drops it from a height or gets it wet? For students who can't access the iPad directly, what switch is the most effective?  If you only have one iPad in your classroom, what accessories promote collaboration?  What are the options for projecting your iPad onto a screen or interactive whiteboard?
