Fraser Speir--a Computing Teacher at a small private school in Scotland.
Fraser has moved the school to a point where every student and teacher now have an iPad. Here is a quote from his blog..
“I feel that teachers aren’t looking for “new software that I can run on this computing device”, rather that they’re asking “can I make this iPad into something else useful for my teaching?.
It’s worth pausing for a moment to fully realise what a sea-change this is in educational technology”.
It is inspiring and informative to read the experience he and the school are going through and I encourage every teacher that reads this blog to check him out. Fraser Speirs Ipad Project
I am inspired and happy to see that one of the decisions they made was not to “pigeon hole” the iPad as a text book replacement or for essays, they just handed them out and watched what staff and students would do with them. A brilliant way to allow innovation and creativity to abound.

iWork on the iPad
Using the iPad as an Administrator
A group of administrators could use the iPad for a grant-funded technology leadership professional development setting. The impact of these activities on technology leadership skills and visioning for NETS support could be significant.
- Rather than provide participants with reams of articles and paper, all the instructional materials for participants could be provided electronically.
- Use dotePub to convert webpages to view in iBooks or save PDFS directly to iBooks
- Leadership-specific video presentations from the K-12 Online Conference could be loaded onto the iPads
- Administrators could learn to subscribe to and download those free, high quality PD resources themselves!
- Administrators could use their iPads to document classroom observations using customized Google Forms running in Safari.
