TEC 964 - iPads in the Classroom

Credits: 3
The iPad has proven its tremendous potential to revolutionize the way students learn and teachers teach. This versatile learning and teaching tool can become a textbook, calculator, drawing pad, interactive map or speaking dictionary, all with an intuitive swipe of a finger. The iPad is a perfect way to integrate technology into the classroom and into the hands of students. A program, developed by the instructor, simulates an iPad on a PC or MAC (software included with the course materials on CD-ROM) so owning an iPad is not necessary to complete the course. Scores of apps (from the tens of thousands available) for all grade levels and most subjects are demonstrated on the simulator. All assignments may be completed without classroom participation. Instructor support is readily available by email and phone. Additional information may be found at: www.steveyoungfpu.net NOTE: Access to a computer with a CD-ROM drive is recommended to complete the course. If your computer does not have a CD-ROM drive, the contents of the course CD-ROM can be delivered electronically via DropBox.
