My Project

Currently, iPads are given to us through the district, and we are not able to download apps that fit each student need. If each student has an individual iPad, this will help streamline data collection. We can download apps that are for each individual student from our personal App Store. The apps will be custom to their academic and communication goals. We have 10-12 students.

The goal for this project is to have each student have an iPad at school that we can customize for each student.

When the students learn to navigate Apple technology via an iPad, the possibilities are endless! Students can learn to communicate through their writing, we can download apps that meet their goals that take data while using. The charging cart will keep the iPads charged, ready-to -use and safe. The flexile seating will be used by students so they can use their iPads wherever it is most comfortable for them.

We are very excited about this project!
