My students needs vary just like most adults. Not every shoe fits the same person and if it does, it may not be another's preferred style. Accordingly, students do not learn the same way nor do they always like to learn in the same style. There is one thing though that catches every child's attention and that is TECHONOLOGY! Whenever given the opportunity to use the computer all my students race to it. With a class of 18 learners and only three computers one can understand that any other incorporation of technology would be more than enchanting in an educational setting. Through these iPads they can practice research skills and learn more about the topic they are researching. They can enhance math skills by practicing facts and enhance reading skills by furthering their reading comprehension. These iPads will give them the tool that excited them to learn without limits and love while they are doing it.
