Case Closed

Help me give my students an iPad case that also has a keyboard attached to it. This will help students work on their typing skills.

My Project

I would like to give my students new iPad cases that already have a keyboard on the case. It automatically links with the iPad so there are no more connection issues. Also, students will not be able to lose the keyboard, drop it, or hurt it in any way.

Typing is a skill that has to be taught in schools now.

This is a skill that students need to be fluent in to be successful in most careers in the future. These cases would be game changers as they would help the students use that skill without having to lug another thing around.
