RE: [info-tech] iPAD and 1-to-1
As with any school initiative especially a 1:1, you would never want to go into it without proper investigation. It may be that the iPad is a perfect fit for some schools in a 1:1 it may never be a fit in any matter at other schools. Apple has a long standing tradition of combining all the necessary tools to integrate technology into the schools, but you pay a premium price for their equipment. I do not want to get into a platform war, but I personally will probably get a couple of iPads and see how they work and what they can really do. More apps will come, and the product will go through a ton of revisions, but I still use my gen 1 iPod Touch and I know many people still use there Gen 1 2 and 3 iPods. It is all about what works in your district, how it is implemented and of course supported. --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude Virus on the server aea8.k12.ia.us] - Archived messages from this list can be found at: http://www.mail-archive.com/info-tech@aea8.k12.ia.us/ -
RE: [info-tech] iPAD and 1-to-1
You nailed it Kurt! I will probably buy one just to determine its full potential and no doubt chuck it in the tech pile when it starts to nickle and dime us to death.

I don't have a touch, so I may be missing this app. What I did not see were
applications for Word Processing, spread sheets, and presentations.
Although with the web access I suspect that can be accomplished with Google
Docs (Not that it is a real great replacement). This may also be a reason
to make sure you get "Digital Rights" when (ok IF) you purchase new
textbooks. With 10 hour of battery life, solid state drive, I could see
that it has some potential.
Jason and I have been discussing an education device at the time the Kindles
came out. What the iPAD offers hits most of our discussion points.
Although I am still waiting for the iCAR version that would replace my car
radio/GPS.
