For class we had to find sixty pages and bookmark them. The most interesting pages I found were the apple education page and the discovery page. The school I am student teaching at right now actually…Continue

The episode is about some random stuff that they think are useful tools to aid in teaching. The mentioned moodle, which i had never heard about but it sounded like it was't as easy or convinient to use. On the other hand they also spoke on Evernote which is a tool for teaching. They gave a short description on what it was and what it did and then some good ways to use it. Lineshift was another link they really promoted because of everything good it has to offer. It has many great ideas for both…See More
Terry Smith replied to rodo montes's discussion Kindles and iPads VS Books"I think that's where we're headed, Rodo.I'm particularly interested in the ability of teachers and student to create ebooks, for example as can currently be done iBooks Author tool. I made a sample book and it wasn't very…"
Meghan Woodin replied to rodo montes's discussion Kindles and iPads VS Books"Great post! I do think that we will see more and more tablets being utilized for textbook access and novel access. When we consider the expense of textbooks for every student each year, loss of textbooks, and how quickly textbooks become…"
marissa barbarino replied to rodo montes's discussion Kindles and iPads VS Books"I do believe this is true, that more schools will eliminate textbooks and use electronic sources for textbooks. I myself always check to see if a textbook is available for kindle before purchasing a hard copy. I think it does make it…"
Ada Todd replied to rodo montes's discussion Kindles and iPads VS Books"I do believe that kindles or ipads or another device that does the same will replace textbooks. By the time a textbook is proofed, printed, and purchased it is already out of date. A book sent digitally however would be more recent,…"
Amber Riniker replied to rodo montes's discussion Kindles and iPads VS Books"I do think school will eventually turn to ebooks. There are many benefits to having them. They allow districts to add books to their curriculum without having to order a whole new set of text books. Ebooks are also more convenient. Imaging high…"

Rebekah Donaldson replied to rodo montes's discussion Kindles and iPads VS Books"I think it is probable, but not likely very helpful. I need to be able to hold the book, turn the pages, and really highlight it in order to use it. E-books just don't help me very much. On the other hand, students today are growing up in a…"
Eve Cinnamon replied to rodo montes's discussion Kindles and iPads VS Books"I think there is a huge possibility for schools to substitute textbooks for electronic devices. There are many advantages in that they would be lower in cost, smaller, and easier to use."
Giuseppe Tocci replied to rodo montes's discussion Kindles and iPads VS Books"I hope that e-books will soon substitute paper books. I happened to lift one of my students' rucksack the other day and realised it was too heavy for an 11-year old child. It was heavier the rucksack I take with me when I go out for a week end.…"
Emily Anne Nifong replied to rodo montes's discussion Kindles and iPads VS Books"I want to say yes but the old fashioned part of me wants to say no. I think that in classrooms books could be eliminated for Kindles or iPads. However I think that their will always be a book filled library in every school. Real libraries should…"
Jessica Scott replied to rodo montes's discussion Kindles and iPads VS Books"Great question! I do see schools eventually making the switch to electronic textbooks in the near future. They are definitely cheaper and more environmentally friendly. Also, many university text books are now accessible online, so I would say the…"
