Feedback from Teachers
- The IPads added back the excitement of school and learning for my 4th grade students. It allows my
lower level writers to shine and boosts their confidence levels! I love teaching with the Ipads.
- I am truly hoping that we will have the opportunity to use iPads next year in fourth grade for a longer
period than this year. I feel that my students got so much out of them as did I. We Face Timed with a scientist from NASA. Learned how to communicate with each other in appropriate ways online, students were more eager to look up things they didn't know on their iPads and share during class, and many more.
- Honestly, at first I was extremely concerned about iPads in the classroom. I thought students would
take advantage of this freedom and use the iPad inappropriately or try to search for things when they weren't supposed to. To my surprise, with very strict guidelines and consistency between our class expectations and rules, the students exceeded my expectations and were completely responsible when they used their iPads. As a special ed. teacher I especially saw an improvement in student engagement, productivity, and motivation. I cannot imagine teaching without the iPads next year!
- I saw a marked improvement in my fourth grade reading students motivation, reading focus and writing
skills when they used the iPad to write a biography report. They did not want to stop working and often asked me to come back and continue during their snack time.
