 The IPad in Education

The IPad has revolutionized the way in which we teach and learn.  This mobile learning tool has become an exciting and motivating reality.  Learning is no longer limited to the classroom.  Learning can take place anywhere and at any time.  The IPad makes what was once a dream, possible.  Textbooks can now accessed digitally with a click of a button. Free Learning apps (applications) are available for download from the Apple App Store for almost every subject area you can imagine.  Computer programs such as Pages, Keynote, and Numbers can be downloaded to the IPad and documents can be created or read on this handheld device.

Teaching practices have been transformed by the IPad.  Teachers can plan, develop,  and implement dynamic and interactive audio-visual lessons with more efficiency and ease.  Teachers can use the IPad for their professional development and their own learning at home over a cup of coffee, whenever they choose to..

Technological resources especially audiovisual and web-based can be accessed easily through WiFi and the cellular (3G or 4G) network to enhance the learning experience for students in the classroom, at home, or on the go.  A continuous cycle of learning will be established for every student using the IPad and who have access to an internet connection.  Teachers can engage and motivate students to learn 24 hours a day with their IPads.
