Ungefär som en inspelningsbar whiteboard för iPad... Bra va?
Nyss hemkommen från USA kan jag konstatera att iPads inte bara är heta i Sverige. På andra sidan Atlanten är de stekheta, slutsålda och eftertraktade av både privatköpare och skolor. Jag kunde med egna ögon notera att t ex New Yorks skolor på bred front börjat arbeta med iPads även bland de allra yngsta. Det känns bra att allt fler skolor upptäcker vilka fantastiska pedagogiska möjligheter som ligger i användandet av iPads i undervisningen i allmänhet och bland de yngre i synnerhet. – Digitaliseringen kryper allt längre ned i åldrarna. För massor av barn sker den digitala debuten nu redan under babyåren.
You Tube has just launched YouTube for schools which schools can sign up to using their School Google account.
The service will allow schools to access content from YouTube Edu that can can be futher filtered by "adminstrators." This is designed to facilitate "safe viewing" and I am sure it will be welcomed by many schools worldwide.
Whilst welcoming YouTube's proactive engagement with education; I also have some reservations about this service / You Tube Edu does not host the only good educational content available on YouTube I think it focuses too heavily on 'subjects' and grades rather than the interconnectedness of knowledge. Also the feature to restrict videos to within an institution seems contrary to the open nature of the Internet.
On a positive note it will perhaps enable those schools where YouTube has been foolishly 'banned' to benefit from the wonderful video ecosystem that is YouTube. Via theo kuechel

Many educators have asked – “Are iPads the correct tool to aid learning in education? Lite väl inriktat på det tekniska, men bra saker att tänka på innan man kastar in iPads (eller vilken teknik som helst). Tack Mats för Rescoopet! Via Mats Öström
The most effective skill that the students learned would be computer skills. They are now skilled in computer literacy as well as practicing ICT in their daily course of study. They are using Skype for video chatting, search anything related with their lessons from Wikipedia by using the internet. Even participate in various types of IT competitions and fairs. Our teachers are also taking at least two classes a week using multimedia. Via Nik Peachey

Tablets are great entertainment devices, but when compared to a computer they're hardly as quick and useful for getting things done.
