Ideas for Creating Digital Literacy- Amgela Maiers

Even though this is a slideshare and we can not hear the words of the Angela Maiers many of the slides speak for themselves. I had the pleasure of hearing her speak last year at the iPad Summit at Georgia Tech. I can not say that I have met anyone more passionate about life and education as Ms. Maiers. Her mantra is "You Matter." Take a look at the slideshare and visit her website. I promise you will not be disappointed!

If you don't know what to do, where to begin or you are looking for other ways to incorporate the use if the iPad in your classroom this SlideShare will get the creative juices going! All to often teachers and students begin using the iPad as a consumer. However soon teachers and students will see that there are so many more uses for the iPad. It is a tool in the classroom that enhances learning and extends the walls of the classroom. Viewing this SlideShare will have you thinking of the pedagogy of using the iPads in and out of the classrooms.
