Qualitative Data

Teachers:

4th Grade Teacher:

Another part of the data that can’t truly be measured is the fact that all learning styles are being met. No matter what type of learner each of my students are I was able to cater to them by incorporating different activities in the lesson by using the iPads. This is so important because the teacher is able to differentiate for each student and their needs. There is no argument that the iPads are a great tool to have in a classroom, some data cannot be measured by the scores of tests but rather by the projects and assignments complete by the students.

Kindergarten Teacher:

Student engagement definitely increased as we transformed into a flipped classroom. The videos allowed for more focused small group instruction that truly benefited those who were struggling. The iPads were a valuable resource in student learning as well. I focused on phonic skills when developing our flipped lessons, but also utilized the iPads in other subject areas as well. The apps made it possible for students to expand their knowledge through interacting with meaningful apps.

6th Grade Teacher:

Some students who are reluctant to respond and engage verbally, have found a new voice when given digital tools. Technology has really opened doors for my students.

8th Grade Teacher:

The feedback from parents was outstanding and parents started to understand that this was not just an iPad but a learning resource just like a standard book would be.

2nd Grade Teacher:

Students have made an average growth of 128 Lexile points from August 2013 to March 2014. Typical growth in one school year is 100 Lexile points!

The main goal for the iAchieve iPod project is to increase reading achievement in the third grade iPod classrooms. Data from the first year of implementation of the iAchieve iPod project has shown a positive trend in achieving the goal.
