Monday How could you use an app right away? Someday What is your long term vision? Monday/Someday “ The greatest risk of our investment in tablet computers is that nothing will change. We could find in a few years that, at great expense, we've traded paper textbooks for digital textbooks, paper notebooks for digital notebooks, and paper multiple choice tests for digital multiple choice tests. We may find that as educators we simply take these expensive new devices and digitize existing practices.” -- Justin Reich http://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/edtechresearcher/2013/0 8/somedaymonday_connecting_with_ipads.html
