It has been a week since we distributed the iPads to our
teachers. This week has been totally amazing to watch! For the first time in a
while we have teachers talking and sharing ideas about apps, using the iPad for
instructional material, and using the iPad in classroom instruction. The
engagement of the teachers covers a broad spectrum of the teaching staff, from
the very new teachers to the most experienced. Everyone is engaged in learning
how to use the device, what apps can they use and how to use them for
instruction. As educators we all know
that the best way to learn is to teach and share. We at Bound Brook High have
been striving for an engaging learning environment for our students with the
best practices for all learners to learn.
This upcoming week we be spending time in our faculty
meeting exploring the following apps for note taking and sharing of documents:
1.
Notability
2.
Dropbox
At the end of the session we will ask the staff what are the
next three apps they would like to explore as we move forward in learning how
to use the device for teaching and learning.
