Using iPads for Student-Directed Learning

Friday, May 3, 2013 at 9:00 AM–9:45 AM EDT
4 Ashland (125)
Session Abstract

We will provide guided exploration in the different ways that iPads support student-directed learning that offer students culturally responsive opportunities for authentic communication and meaningful expression.  These strategies move beyond traditional transmission-based, basic drill and practice to student-generated higher order thinking activities that promote the acquisition of contextually-based academic language.
