`Beginning in our next school year, we are very excited to
implement iPads (iPad2 devices) as a tool for collaborative
learning in our English and Media faculty. We believe that the
technology can enhance our pedagogy, whilst engaging our
students in the basics of reading, writing and speaking &
listening. We believe that the devices can harness excitement
and confidence in our students, unleashing greater creativity
and raising literacy standards. By using Apple TV, we will use
the devices as a tool for formative assessment, immediately
streaming student responses, writing, annotation or
presentations and films etc. We are not going for the 1-to-1
model, instead the device will be used as a collaborative tool
in groups. A class set will effectively be 7 to 8 iPads.``
"Writing code on an iPad is a seductive idea with a lot of
technical hurdles. That’s why developer/entrepreneur/Y
Combinator alumnus Darshan Shankar created Binary, an iPad app
that lets you write, test, and run code from just about
anywhere." "
