<div>Hi again folks,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
Personally, I am leaning towards iPads as the main 1:1 device up to Year 11 but then give students the choice (including the use of smart phones, Andriod Tablets, Windows or Apple laptops) for Year 11 &amp; 12.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>A number of schools I have met with this year are also thinking along these lines. The key issue to teacher preparedness and need for well considered user guidelines.&nbsp;</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It's not difficult to see the advantages of the iPad with 12,000 education apps and counting, many text books now available as either eBooks or pdf, new initiatives such as&nbsp;<a href="https://collusionapp.com/">Collusion</a>&nbsp;being invented to aide collaborative
 work and annotations and the list goes on and on ...</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The really interesting factor is the decreasing price of Andriod tablets and the inevitable growth in that market (check&nbsp;<a href="http://phandroid.com/2012/05/13/thai-govt-signs-32-8-million-deal-to-purchase-android-tablets-for-education/">this</a>&nbsp;article

<br>
Hi Tim,<br>
<br>
A great discussion indeed, and thanks to all the contributors.<br>
<br>
Yes, the ancient Tablets did lead to the scrolls, that eventually led to<br>
the iPad :)<br>
<br>
I absolutely agree about mobile digital interactive devices including<br>
BYODs. They are here. The hard part is how can we make the best use them.<br>
<br>
I actually spoke to my Yr 12 SofDev class who have had Macbooks since Yr 9,<br>
and additionally iPads since Term 2 this year . I asked which device allowed<br>
them to learn, study, interact better. The unanimous response was iPads.<br>
I also asked which device they would use if they were forced to choose one.<br>
You can guess the answer. There were no iPad fans because they can't do much<br>
with it relative to the laptops. Perhaps they are getting old ....<br>
<br>
&nbsp;The question does come back to are any schools using iPads at Yr 7 - 12<br>
and if so how are they delivering the curriculum with iPads at the higher<br>
levels ?<br>
<br>
Kindest Regards<br>
