Examples from Washington:
_____________________________- This is a vocabulary project. Students were asked to create popples for words and their definitions. We were able to move popples around, cover definitions with words, and match the words with the right definitions.
- Problem: can't save it or keep it as an interactive activity for later, only work with it during class
_____________________________
- I've had students create group drawings. We pass the ipad around the room and each student gets a chance to add his/her own touch to the drawing. We all watch the drawing grow on the SMART board.

- Students used iPads to Video other students on their team making news reports about news worthy topics(curricular goal is making a speech). This included special correspondent news reports "made in the field". These special reports interviewed teachers and students. Commercials were also created if the team chose to do commercials. The news cast panel presented their individual news items, introduced a video special report with a transition from news cast to special report and back to the new cast panel. Students also transitioned to commercial break and back to the news cast panel.Each group presented their news cast live. It was video recorded along with each special report and commercial to be played back for review. The news team and class critiqued the entire presentation.
- The techo challenge was to get all the inputs into the iPad to mirror with my smartboard.
- The logistics monitoring students and their accountability for using the iPads posed challenges. Holding students accountable for where they had checked out to in the building to conduct their work was also a challenge. The accessibility of the iPads to complete the project in a reasonable time frame was a challenge as well. The assistance, patience and understanding of teachers and other staff was appreciated. Making sure that the video content of students was kept "in house" is always a concern.
- The rhubric will be developed by me and my students to be as authentic as possible.
