IPADS

The Ipad pilot program is a very exciting and beneficial experience.  There are many pros to having an Ipad accessible to the school internet allowing us, as students, to  get the most out of every class as possible.  Unlimited internet access is unlimited access to answers raised in class discussions, phrases teachers neglect to over(or lack of knowledge due to absence), and its an available tool for independent studies.  While others worry about their need for laptops or computers but discover there are not enough, we work diligently because of our always available ipads.  Some find it useful to organize their notes, but i personally like binders and folders.  There are few cons to go along with these pros however; limited app downloading creates a barrier for many websites, and because of the unlimited internet access, some students find ipads to be distracting. Yet these cons are simple fixes, and do not compare to the pros that the ipads bring.  I am hopeful that this is not the only year students receive ipads because they do prove to be a very useful tool for developing one's mind.
