The iPad for Learning Teaching Workshop at IMU!


First, I would like to declare that I am NOT working for Apple, and I was certainly not paid for preparing a workshop (and slides) on using iPad for learning and teaching. However, I do use iPad a lot for my own personal learning, and there are some really cool things that educators can do with it to engage students and inspire more creativity, besides the negative aspects which are highlighted, too (Slide 11).

The iPad for Learning and Teaching workshop was facilitated at IMU on the 9th January, 2013 (for IMU faculty staff only).

Now, lets explore some of the cool stuff!

IPAD WORKSHOP

This 1/2 day hands-on workshop will awaken and empower you on how iPads can be used more strategically and effectively for learning and teaching using a range of cool apps. It will be interactive, engaging, fun, and you will learn a lot of tips on how to use mobile devices to engage your students in and beyond the classroom. 

After completing this workshop, you will be able to:
  • Download and annotate presentations/articles/notes.
  • Use social media to connect and collaborate with others.
  • Create interactive multimedia e-books.
  • Create and publish online interactive video tutorials.
  • Use a variety of apps to engage students in and beyond the classroom.
