iPad Summit San Diego 2015

In this hands-on, intensive, workshop, participants will explore advanced topics in classroom iPad integration such as App Fluency, App Smashing, curation, and collaboration. Advanced workflow strategies will be covered as well as multi-app combination scenarios to create new multimedia content. Participants in this workshop will push the boundaries of what is possible with iPads.

Google + iPad may be the ultimate combination. With the collaborative capabilities of Google Apps combined with the creative possibilities of iPads, it may be a perfect match. In this session, we will explore a number of ways to incorporate Google Drive and Google Apps into your iPad workflow as well as new opportunities to create and communicate through a number of Google's other tools and services.

This workshop focuses on effective iPad innovation from both a conceptual as well as a practical standpoint. Beginning with understanding the device itself and the features of the iOS, we will move along a path from consumption to creation to curation to connection. For teachers who are new to iPad, this workshop is a perfect starting point.

From recording reading fluency, to developing storytelling skills, to demonstrating problem solving, iPads can be used in a myriad of ways in the elementary classroom. This workshop will focus specifically on iPad innovation at the K-4 level. We will explore apps and strategies specific to young learners to empower them as creators of their own learning artifacts.

This hands-on workshop will explore the many possible avenues for creative student expression made possible with iPads. Using a core suite of tools, we will explore the potential for combining media to build and publish collaborative projects. By the end of the day, we will have collaborated to complete a media rich eBook documenting our creative process. Participants will leave with a tangible product as well as a host of ideas to apply in their classroom.
