[Year 12 IT Apps] IPADs in education

[Roland Gesthuizen]

I agree with others .. best to discuss on the eLearning and year 7-10
mailing list. Keep it generic (talking about tablet devices) ..

I always said we would return to the simple hard caves, fishing nets,
scratch on marble tablets and interpret messages in clouds. Anybody else for
running along the beach with a live scribble-stick on the sand? (Apologies,
my mind is turning to mush not teaching ITA, most focus on VITTA conference,
must focus on VITTA conference)
