Students are naturally more engaged in learning while using technology. iPads are a versatile tool for many projects. My students will improve their writing by using them to create graphic novels and movies. They'll learn movie production with programs like iMovie. Their movies will showcase learning around campus with interviews and short films featured on our school's morning show. Graphic novels will tell the story of Lego characters using pictures and speech bubbles. Students will even use the iPads to practice coding in our weekly coding club. They will help our school's media center transform into a tech hub where students can become researchers, coders, authors, and film makers. The possibilities of what we can create using iPads is endless!
