Having an iPad will provide more personalized feedback to my students. Going fully remote and virtually paperless has challenged my ability to provide the type of feedback that my students need. In a virtual classroom setting, the responses present in a more robotic manner. With the iPad, I will be able to provide more personal and instant feedback. Students will benefit by getting individualized feedback geared toward their needs. Students need to feel connected during this time and I believe having the iPad is one way to make that happen.
