iPads and MacBook arrived

Christmas has come early at RTCS this year. We feel fortunate as we have been selected to take part in a classroom pilot project. Our equipment arrived from Set BC today and we have started the process of getting them set up. We have been researching different strategies for maintaining the iPads. We started by selecting a suite of apps, which will give the students lots of choice on how they will demonstrate their learning. Over the next couple of weeks we will be introducing the students to the devices and available apps.

Now that the equipment is set up, we are now waiting for our students to return their consent forms to use a variety of web tools to share their projects. We decided to use Google Apps for Education and will be creating e-portfolios using blogger. Please continue to follow our journey.
