The Student Guide to iPads – It’s Great for Teachers Too

So your school has introduced iPads but you would love a simple, clear guide to support your students?

Richard Byrne's post entitled: The Student Guide to iPads – It’s Great for Teachers Too  shares about such a guide available as a free iTunes app- The Student Guide to iPads & iOS 6, written by Jac de Haan. 
Byrnes indicates that this app covers all of the basics needed to get started.
iTunes describes the app as: 

"The Student Guide to iPads & iOS 6 was written to help middle-school and high-school students become proficient with basic iPad operations to support learning.

This book focuses on iOS productivity apps and basic troubleshooting."

but WAIT there's MORE! .....

It is NOT enough to know HOW to use iPads we MUST use them well to support teaching and learning.

Mark Gleeson (Mr G online) stated in  iPurpose before iPad: " there is room for improvement in creating a tool for supporting time poor iPads in Schools implementers in planning, selecting, justifying and integrating iPad apps in education." and then went on to suggest a collaborative effort to develop such a tool.
Visit  iPurpose before iPad and be amazed at how helpful such a tool can be as it is continually tweaked and developed. You may wish to contribute your ideas to this helpful tool.
