"It's a creation device and we create with it. We
write with it. We create podcasts on it. We
create posters which synthesizes imagery with
writing. We research and analyze."
"And it's not about magic apps. It's about kids
having access to knowledge and the ability to
manipulate it."
"For my class, when they come in and the
iPads are out they immediately pick them up on
their own and go to the blog. They write."

19. FEEDBACK
"Students are writing on the iPads during the
day...and then returning to it on their own at
night."
"Students are writing more. I can measure that.
They are writing more independently. I can
measure that. They are engaging with each
other's writing. I can measure that."
"It's not about any magical apps--it's still about
writing and about access."
