  3. Original Proposal/Expectations • To examine emerging technologies and their impacts and achieve strategic advantage • One focus would be on examination of the potential of the iPad in a classroom setting • Investigating different applications for classroom adoption • Potential for note-taking capture and researching supplemental textbook information • Many companies use iPads for use in operational processes and data collection • Students would gain experience with capturing data and then using programs to process the data

  4. How did mobile technology/Apps enhance teaching and learning? • Compared traditional assignment and repeated with flipboard • Conduct a short research analysis on the specific year provided to you in class (i.e. 2014,2013, 2012 etc) Consumer Electronics Show http://ces.cnet.com . • See if you can notice any new trends and then write a 2-3 page summary of your own personal analysis regarding which trends appear to most likely to be successful. • You should also include a discussion on information technology adoption both from a company and personal perspective.

  10. Limitations • Regular classroom had computer access thus negating need for ipad device • Ipad devices could not project wirelessly onto screen (only instructor) • Still never found a good direct iPad to iPad connection (had to use a third source..website or app) • Drop box was not a real fluid/ease of use method of file transfer

  11. Lessons Learned • iPads could be used as a textbook replacement • iPads were helpful when engaging in Lab Activities • The ipad did not work so much as a replacement of other classroom instruction tools but rather an enhancement • The ipad definitely helped with making better presentation of material • iMovie results not currently completed • iBook results not currently completed
