From mattbritland.com - May 30, 2013 10:25 PM
Beth Dichter's insight:

The Kingston Grammar School began an iPad Trial in Sept. 2012. Their ICT Director, Matt Brittland, designed evaluations of the process and has just published a detailed report. Links to the following items are available from this website.

* iPad Report (2012-2013 - full report)

* iPad Trial: Launching to Heads of Departments (presentation)

* iPad Launch to all Staff - Inset: How it Worked (Resources Included)

* How to Evaluate iPad Use in Education

* Lots of iPad Video Tutorials

The final report provides graphs of evaluations from teachers and students. If your school is considering bringing in iPads take the time to review these materials.
