Synopsis

How to transform student learning with iPad Tablets have been hailed as the biggest revolution in education since the printing press, but years since the launch of the iPad why has so little in education changed? Many point to the fact that they’re just the latest educational fad, or that their benefits have been oversold. Others call for a return to the traditional methods of teaching, but on the periphery you see schools achieving incredible things with iPads. Schools like ESSA Academy, The de Ferrers Academy and Hove Park all reporting record student results within just a few years of introducing this technology. How are these schools achieving this and how can your own replicate it? In The Tablet Revolution, entrepreneur and school improvement expert Jay Ashcroft explains why and, most importantly, how. Having worked with hundreds of schools using iPad, Jay knows what works, what doesn’t, and how you can start transforming student learning with the iPad at your institution. This book is a recipe for ensuring your school, college or University starts transforming student learning with iPad too. The Tablet Revolution covers:

    Challenging and inspiring students to do their best Getting your infrastructure right from the beginning Funding and growing your iPad project year after year Engaging parents to get them on board Developing sustainable, high quality teacher training opportunities
