Using iPads has changed the way I teach. I am able to produce more interesting and appealing lessons for students and make the classroom more student-centered. Students are enjoying their online lessons and are actively more engaged in their learning. At the end of each lesson, students have definitely understood the content being taught.

The iPad has dramatically increased the classwork completion rate. Students are visibly more comfortable using the devices. I think this is due to the ease of access for the students. Students are gaining important skills required for the future workplace. The iPads are less distracting and as a teacher, we have access to higher levels of engagement and have more control over teaching and learning activities

Students are changing the way they learn. Students are becoming more independent learners which is a skill that will always benefit them during high school, tertiary education, and life.

iPads are very versatile and provide an abundance of learning content to cater to a multitude of learning styles to suit all types of student abilities. They allow easier communication between students and teachers and the work is always available to students, any time of the day.

Since using the iPads in the classroom, the way students deliver their work has improved as they have allowed and encouraged students to become more creative with work and add an individualised approach to their learning. Students appear to really enjoy using the iPads and they are lightweight and easy to carry around.

I think that the iPads have improved my learning because it is much easier to do my work when it’s all on here! ~Thomas~
The iPads are amazing hardware to use for our learning. It is a well-organised environment when we use iPads. The teacher has access to see our iPads which is good.

iPads give us heaps of options to do things with our classwork and homework. The iPads allow us to collaborate work as sharing working amongst us is easier.
