Explore some apps. Time to explore some of the apps that are currently available. Mobile Learning in Action! Wrap Up! One of the great things
about the iPad is the ability to share apps like you'd share information
about a band. Please help us add to our growing list of apps by
filling out this form. See what apps people are sharing. Additional Resources (to really Geek out!) | When was the iPad first imagined? Helpful Tips How to add a bookmark? In
Safari, click on the "+" next to the address bar, you can add a
shortcut to either the "desktop" (also known as the home screen) or as a
bookmark to the Safari browser. This can be handy to access websites
you frequent often. How to save a picture into your Photo App?When
you're browsing around the Internet and find a picture you like, tap
and hold the picture and you'll be prompted with a "Save Image" and
"Copy" prompt. By selecting the "Save Image", it will download the
image to you iPad in the "Saved Pictures" album in the Photo App. Often
times, certain features of some applications will have a different
layout whether you're looking at it in portrait or landscape mode.
I've noticed, while in pages, that some features weren't present in
landscape mode (which is easier for me to type on) that were available
in the portrait mode. Key point: try both ways to see if it's
something that is hiding from you! How to take a screenshot of the iPad screen! Taking a screenshot of whats on
your iPad can come in very handy when you need to share something with
people who don't have access to see your screen. By holding down the
home button (the only button on the front of the iPad) and the power
button (top of the iPad), the screen will flash and take a picture of
whatever is on your screen. The iPad will store this in the "Saved Photos" album in the Photos app! How to delete multiple pictures from the Photo App!It's
a little deceiving to try and delete more than one photo at a time
while browsing the Photo App. What you want to do it is click on the
arrow in the top right corner of the photo app (doesn't work in all
folders, but it does for the general photos area and saved photos).
Then, click on one of the photos you want to delete and the delete
button will be highlighted. You can now drag around to select as many
as you'd like to delete! How to transfer Apps from one computer to another? I
sync my iPad with my home computer, but sometimes I'll be at work and
find a cool app that might be available free for a limited time. I
typically download the app to my work computer, then in the apps window
of the, I'll right click on the app and Show in Finder (or Show in
Explorer). I then take that .ipa file and store it on my dropbox to
transfer that purchase to my home computer. How to limit students from accessing certain content on the iPad! There
are some obvious reasons why you might want to limit certain
applications (perhaps iTunes) while your students use your iPad. If
you go to Settings - > General - > Restrictions -> Enable
Restrictions... you can dictate what apps can be accessed after you
type in a passcode. While that passcode is setup, those apps won't even
display on the screen. To disable this, simply navigate back to this
page and enter the passcode! |
