Re: iPads for Schools

[Maria Obiageli Chukwu-Ike]

Hi Stuart,
   The apple store in perth have put together a free
workshop titled "ipads in business". The aim is to highlight how ipads
can be used within businesses. I highly recommend it.

You might also want to explore health related apps available in the
apple's apps store as well :)

 Hi Glenn
 I don't know Geoff Strauss but he puts up a solid case for not
 using the iPad as an alternative to a laptop. He does have a
 Curriculum Vitae at the bottom of his about me on his home page
 which shows, among other things, experience in a high school, not
 a primary school. However, most of what he asserts would be
 relevant for any student.

 The forum at the URL below is like a staff room conversation but
 will give you some points to contrast with Strauss's story.
  
 

Re: Seagate external drive

[Maria Obiageli Chukwu-Ike]

Hi alex,
My experience with the external hard drives is that the
formatting is important. Macs can only read from a windows formatted
hard drive but they cannot write to it. If you do want to use the hard
drive as you normally use it in windows (I.e read from it and write to
it) then you will need to format it on the Mac (as per the
instructions provided by Roger)..however once this is done, you will
not be able to use that external hard drive in a windows environment..
Hope this helps

Thank you all for your feedback. Sorry for my late response.

So far diffmerge was the most appropriate for me. Its free and it can be
used in the Windows and MAC environments..

Ronni: your description of Toast Titanium matches exactly what i want to do,
but i could not find a free version of the software?
