If we continue down this road, we will have to figure something out for next year.Liz B Davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14855594085056447018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5396207241794796454.post-45365491180146846002012-03-18T01:03:57.553-04:002012-03-18T01:03:57.553-04:00Thank you for this post!

Are you allowing your teachers to have full access to customize the iPad or did you lock out app movement and addition? <br /><br />Just a few questions! Thanks!<br /><br />I have two articles so far about Hopkinton, MA's deployment in the elementary schools, feel free to check them out!<br /><br />http://elemitpro.blogspot.com/adminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18139997244965306916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5396207241794796454.post-77289109685602975102012-02-19T20:38:30.807-05:002012-02-19T20:38:30.807-05:00Hi,

Would it be as a replacement for a laptop in a one-to-one scenario? Have you come across any advantages an iPad has over a netbook? My mentor teacher has an iPad through the school, but hasn't found any real applications in which it makes sense in his high school English classroom. I am intrigued, but also a little frustrated at the seeming dearth of information.<br />I am eager to continue hearing about your adventure, and exactly how this particular technology is used!<br />Mariah PriceMariahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841397059863653012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5396207241794796454.post-74217000042958598432012-01-19T17:52:40.967-05:002012-01-19T17:52:40.967-05:00Liz, at the school I worked at I lead a faculty st...Liz, at the school I worked at I lead a faculty study group where we gave every participant an iPad. Participation in the group was on a voluntary basis. We documented our work over at: http://castimobilelearning.blogspot.com/ . I can't say our work was very deep, but it did corroborate many of my initial skeptical thoughts. Best of luck as you move down this path with your community.Matt Montagnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10043255947997478607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5396207241794796454.post-15125471798903588502012-01-19T17:15:36.566-05:002012-01-19T17:15:36.566-05:00Liz,

Using the journey metaphor we're still working out what journey to set out on!
