Tearing Down Walls

using social media to expand the classroom community

iPad2 Rollout

The day has finally arrived. Today, my environmental science class received their new “digital backpacks.” They were shocked and excited-they had no clue! We are three weeks into school. I’m excited to see what students can do with the tools, and how it might change how I teach the course. Part of my goal is attempt to run a paperless class.  Tomorrow I’ll orient them to our class blog, and the WordPress blogging app.

I’ll post our final list of apps soon, as well as lessons learned throughout the 2011-12 school year. Stay tuned!
