I believe that you have answered some of my questions. Here is the link to my take of the subject:<br /><br />http://bit.ly/cEq0wYHakan S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09884044787873844106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005114591173102634.post-8787870982041485682010-05-02T19:44:56.520-04:002010-05-02T19:44:56.520-04:00I want to thank all of you who have posted your th...I want to thank all of you who have posted your thoughts and ideas regarding Apple in the classroom.

Alan Kay said at a 1995 congressional hearing something to the effect of: Apple products make sense in education because they are intuitively designed to work the way you would expect them to work.

I love the concept of being able to make annotations and notes on the texts. How cool to be able to access all of the works of Shakespeare for free and in one light place. Having back problems, I'm very aware not carrying around a heavy stack of books has got to be better for us and our students.Judithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14453445036079233206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005114591173102634.post-79657452115816567602010-05-02T06:47:53.825-04:002010-05-02T06:47:53.825-04:00Agree completely with the idea of pupils having 1 ...Agree completely with the idea of pupils having 1 to 1 iTouch. I've been lucky enough to be given enough for my class (VERY small class!!) and it is amazing the ways the children are coming up with to extend/support their learning and this after less than 10 days using them. <br /><br />I look forward to hearing more about the iPad in the classroom and hopefully about how you are using the ebd35https://www.blogger.com/profile/10431767462006555099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005114591173102634.post-10274074269537515972010-05-02T00:32:00.513-04:002010-05-02T00:32:00.513-04:00Any interest in cross-posting this entry and or ot...Any interest in cross-posting this entry and or others on IEAR.org.
