Are iPads and iPods on track to revolutionize K-12 education or are they overhyped? The truth is somewhere in the middle, as schools and teachers continue to develop their understanding of how these devices can be used to our advantage in education.

In this two day workshop, explore how iPads can be used as a teaching/learning tool to differentiate learning, embrace multi-sensory and interactive learning, and improve formative assessment practices.

This session is recommended for teachers who will have access to iPads/iPods during the 2011-2012 school year.  

This workshop will also explore how schools and teachers can manage multiple iPads/iPods, scheduling, how to choose apps, and ways of obtaining funding.
