My students have little to no experience with Ipads. Most of them never used one before; however, when I took them to the school library to complete a technology project, they were all so excited to work with Ipads. They were extremely engaged and enthused throughout the entire time they were working on their project. There is no better way for students to learn then through meaningful, engaging and interesting activities that requires the use of technology. I plan on having my students explore the world with the use of the tablets. They can study the bodies of water, different types of animals, plants, people and many other things. They can also learn how to use microsoft office programs, create movies, read books online, publish their own books and communicate with one another through the use of schoology.
