iPads in The Clasroom @ Maple Green 2011/12

by C

At Maple Green we recognize first and foremost that good pedagogy is critical to student success, therefore we ask ourselves: "How can iPads enhance or improve our pedagogy?"

"Assessment of, for and as learning becomes so much more meaningful for myself and my students through the learning opportunities with the iPad. For example, my shy and non confident students eagerly share their work for me to see."

"I am amazed how quickly the students are able to navigate using the iPad essentially creating a more efficient classroom. They are focussed, working collaboratively and cooperatively and are able to troubleshoot with each other to solve problems.

"The students all work at different rates and finish at different times. The iPad has enabled my students to extend their learning or focus on other curricular activities when they have finished an assignment."
