This project is very important to me due to making the material I work with my students more accessible. While having a larger screen enables me to have students view at a more comfortable working distance and have the advantages of the Apple accessibility features already built into their system such as Zoom, Voiceover, and simply just a larger screen. While most iPads my students use are only 9 inches the extra 3 inches the iPad pro offers will be beneficial for student viewing. This is especially true when students have to zoom in for content they are working on! Most of the time my younger students have a difficult time finding items on a smaller screen due to losing their place on the page or iPad application we are using that day for instruction. For many of my students the iPad I use to work with them may be their first time being taught any of the accessibility features the iPad's have for our students with visual impairments and I want it to be a positive experience!
