Why is an iPad a valuable resource? iPads give a different spin on the way we use technology. So why not use this technology in the gym or in the classroom? All of our grew up in a technology driven society, so let’s use that to our advantage as educators. Maybe we can use applications, iPhones, and iPads not as a negative and take them away from students constantly but give them a reason to want to use them in a way to benefit their education. I think these applications can definitely steer our students to that direction.
