I agree with others .. best to discuss on the eLearning and year 7-10 mailing list. Keep it generic (talking about tablet devices) ..  

I always said we would return to the simple hard caves, fishing nets, scratch on marble tablets and interpret messages in clouds. Anybody else for running along the beach with a live scribble-stick on the sand? (Apologies, my mind is turning to mush not teaching ITA, most focus on VITTA conference, must focus on VITTA conference)

	Hi all,
	
	I have had a request from our special education teachers to purchase Ipads as a learning aid for students with learning disabilities.  Can anyone give me their views on the benefits or otherwise, of using ipads over netbooks
	
	Thanks
