Due to the recent COVID-19 pandemic, students and teachers around the world have abruptly had to abandon the norm and adjust to distance learning. Teachers, like myself, are struggling to connect with their students, due to limited resources. The iPad and other materials can be used to create academic content that students can access from home. Many of my students require personalized instruction, which I have been unable to provide much of, given the current circumstance. With the iPad, I will have the ability to record and share videos of myself teaching. I could also create fun projects and activities. In addition to being used for distance learning, the materials can be used by students when we are able to return to school.
