February 17, 4:17 AM
I'm interested in the relationship between dyslexia and language learning. I'd also really like to know if languages which use a different kind of script (not roman) can cause difficulties? Do you get Chinese dyslexia? Delete the scoop?

Lets compare these two devices in terms of function, cost, and extras. I will look at what the devices do similarily, how much the average cost is for the devices, and what other advantages one tool might have over the other, and then you decide!

I agree on all counts. We are using Apple TV aon the HS level and it's faster connectivity with more functionality.

I agree, that the iPad/AppleTV combination is better than the IWB. However, I don’t think any of them are of great value when it comes to the learning outcome.
Give each student the opportunity to bring their own device instead.

Niels, I also allow students to use their own devices or incorporate them into our activities. But they must be able to adapt themselves. The sharing of this idea is for the purpose of comparative outcomes.

The tiny French-Canadian startup EXOPC wowed the crowds of the Consumer Electronics Show in 2012 with its prototype for the EXODesk, a table-sized multitouch tablet that cost just over $1,000. (You can check out photos and video the prototype here; the real thing is featured in the YouTube video below). In the year since, the company has changed its name to EXO U, added staff and signed a deal to ship 25 of its EXODesks to the Latin American country Panama, where its first futuristic classroom is being prepped for the start of the semester in March.

Write to Read is an educational iPad app that helps young kids, ages 3-10, hone their reading skills through writing, specifically story creation. The Write to Read experience is based on the idea of ‘learning to read by writing’ and ‘writing and discovering’ where the child uses his current level of written language abilities to create text to accompany pictures taken with the iPad camera.

To create a narrated picture book on Story Creator start by inserting a picture as your book’s cover. To create a page just tap the “+” icon and import a picture, draw a picture, type some text, or do all three. After completing one or all three of those previous actions tap the microphone icon to record your narration. After making your recording you can quickly adjust it so that each word of text is highlighted to match the timing of your narration.
