Before anything else, BRAVO TEACHERS! I've been in technology for over 18 years. What I can tell you is that technology, like the iPad, is a great tool - IF - someone utilizes it appropriately. More than ever, kids are visual learners now. This means that most would rather work with an interactive learning experience than read a chapter in a book on the same topic. It's amazing that innovative people such as educators/teachers have to fight for funding, and sufficient pay. Well I'm one that is happy my taxes are paying for education, even know I have no children. THANKS TEACHERS!
