My students should have the availability to interact with the content the way any well funded school should. We do not have our own computer cart or computer lab to bring the kids to do their own research. We don’t even have a map of the US or the World due to limited space on the walls. We are confined to a projector, chalk-board, and two small whiteboards I found and had drilled into the board. The iPad Pro will give my students the chance to get involved through identifying locations and sharing written work that I can take a photo of and edit together as a class! The iPad Pro also supports PowerPoint and can be used to edit in Cornell Notes onto their notes on the board. I think it will open up a lot of avenues of learning for my students.
