I-pads, android tablets, netbooks or laptops?

Help and all advice accepted (first posting as well!)

My school is presently "debating" what best practice is for the upgrade of ICT throughout. Presently in the Junior section of the College, we have 10 desktops available for each class.

My teaching partner and I are suggesting that we switch to a mix of laptops and i-pads.

What is the thoughts about netbooks vs laptops, and or i-pads vs tablets?

Thank You!

Thanks so much for this - I seem to agree about the ipad being outclassed. Thank you for your input!

Hi Kate,

Can i know the strength of your class? Do students concentrate when you are explaining using the technology?

I appreciate that technology has helped us a lot. I am not sure of how good or bad the ipad or any other device usage in our school yet! Could you please share your experience on how good and productive is the ipad use in the classroom?

Thank you.
