23. Talking Points prior to liftoff
• Have some serious discussions with your
network manager and operations team
• We have a large network (WAN) that
required some special considerations from
our network folks. Meet and talk it's very
important
• iPads do not support Flash so many media
type sites will not function, word to the wise,
know your content prior to launching into a
lesson/site

24. Decisions prior to liftoff, cont.
When setting up the kids with Edmodo for use
later on iPads
• Set up the accounts on a desktop PC rather
than the iPads.
• Know who is assigned to what iPad. This
has many advantages (saving/lack of,
pictures, data, uploading)
• Use the iPad as an instructional tool/
Creation tool
• The keyboard is non-standard and can pose
challenges/limitations

25. In Closing
iPad + Edmodo = Power Couple
A picture is worth a thousand words
The camera is on a roll
