[elearning] AppleTV

[Andrew Shortell]

hi Domenic

Apple TV is great. Yes it does not support wpa2 enterprise - very annoying as the ipads do support it and it is same OS!!

so I have appletv connected to wire. I purchased projector with hdmi input and all future projectors will have hdmi

I use it with iPads in class. It makes it easy to show student work. It makes it easy to show my work on ipad.

I have downloaded airparrot  (www.airparrot.com) . It does air play from the mac.  NO CABLES  Yay.

You might like to look at  http://darcymoore.net/2012/06/03/mirror-mirror/

I see no point in keeping cables when we do not need them.

Good luck and let us know how you go 

Andrew
