iPads



If you're new to the iPad, check out this basic tutorial that will provide you with tips and strategies needed to use the device efficiently and effectively. //Page 1 of this tutorial could also be shared with students//.

 * Part III: Exploring Apps on the iPad
 * Part IV: Snapshots of Hylton iPad Lessons for Students


 * When using iPads with students, the critical first step is to outline the project expectations and guidelines for acceptable use. The student contract shared above was used in my AP Macroeconomics course in November 2012 when we worked on our first creation project with the iPads.
 * **The key components to a student contract for iPad Use include:**
 * A project overview - a brief snapshot of the assignment (1-3 sentences)
 * iPad Permissions - a list of the approved apps for the assignment (this is critical)
 * Partner assignment (if applicable)
 * iPad # for the project - this holds students accountable for their device
 * Statement for iPad use with student signature


 * After students have signed an iPad Contract, and before they begin their project, it is important to walk through a brief tutorial. The goal of the tutorial is to model how each app works, and share how it will be used for the project.
