The iPads are here! The iPads are here!
In science students have been hitting the iPads in every way possible. The students love using it and I love having them use to to expand their learning, creativeness and engagement.
It hasn’t been all that easy integrating the iPads in science. We’ve had struggles from emails not working, internet network slow, to apps not working and navigating through Google Docs. However, with every challenge the students have been so helpful in finding ways to problem solve the challenges and patient in waiting for all classmates to troubleshoot.
Below are a few ways we’ve been using iPads in science. I look forward to using the iPads more in science as the students and myself gain confidence in using it more.
