How do you use iPad as a tool in class
Invited tech savvy librarian to tell students what the iPad can do: Read books, eBooks Research tools: CHEMnetBASE, ProQuest, May act as a substitute for Mac or PC desktop or laptop - doing research, can avoid computer lab,
Asked students to find discipline specific apps and productivity apps. Students demoed apps in class.
Instructors use TP Anywhere on PC or Mac Students connect with Responseware on their iPad or via the web.
Cloud based Many unique question types Just acquired by Pearson
Students were asked to solve a problem in class and write their work in AirSketch and save it in a shared Dropbox. Instructor then opens the students work and displays it in class. Airsketch is like a whiteboard. - save to photos - upload photo to Dropbox Much easier when using Apple TV!
Instructor figured out how to use AirSketch and Panopto lecture capture to prepare pre-lab video “ screen casts ” videos for pre-lab instructions. Panopto is web-based lecture capture tool hosted in the cloud.
