The iPad is a great tool for a number of reasons. It allows me to go paperless and boardless now that we are implementing distance learning. Online learning is one thing that is new and that has been forced upon us by the current health situation. We recognize that, during this closure, teachers and students have different abilities to engage in distance learning. However, with this technology, learning can still be fun and doable. Taking notes or annotating slides when sharing screens is much better than using a whiteboard that won't fit the screen on my computer. During the regular school year, we can always use the iPad for students to use whenever they forget their own computer. During this time of crisis, the iPad Pro will allow me the power to harness multiple screens for distance learning, as more than one screen (my laptop) is needed to properly demonstrate concepts of science and physics with my students. The use of the iPad will be invaluable for communicating information to my students, especially the cross-curricular concepts that reside in STEM. Specifically, science and math will both be used to assess body movements, as students will learn the science behind how the body moves in space. Having the iPad handy will enable me as an instructor the power to communicate physical science and physics concepts through virtual/distance learning and when school is back to normal, allow students to apply their knowledge with the use of the iPad when on the go (i.e. GYM, football field, track, etc.). The classroom environment of a physical educator changes dramatically, and allowing students the opportunity for cross-curricular science concepts that apply to physical education on the go is the best way for students to learn across multiple subject areas.
