iPad Classroom Connection: Facilitating Academic Excellence
Abstract
The iPad is an innovative technology that has transformed how individuals share and interact with information. The multi-sensory design of the iPad and the plethora of applications pertaining to academics have made this technology an invaluable device in an educator's toolkit. In an era of high-stakes testing and No Child Left Behind (NCLB), it is imperative that students be armed with the latest technology and up-to-date information, in order to achieve academic success in the 21st century classroom. The integration of this technology in the assistive technology course has granted William Paterson University teacher candidates in the Elementary Education (K-5) and Teacher of Students with Disabilities Program and the Secondary Education (K-12) with Teacher of Students with Disabilities Endorsement Program an advantage in learning how to effectively integrate this technology in their future classrooms. The assistive technology lab is equipped with 15 iPads, which are loaded with a variety of apps that address all subject areas and ability levels. The iPads are used throughout the semester to allow the teacher candidates to become familiar with the technology and to critically analyze various education apps.
