IPad Blog #2
I have now spent two weeks with my IPad, and I absolutely love it! I am using it a lot more than I have thought, and I know that my classmates are jealous but they agree that IPads should be incorporated with our schools classes.
But besides getting done with school work quickly, I have also used the Ipad for several other resources. For instance, yesterday, I was able to interview Mr. Coleman in regards to the new practice field, and the completion. I filmed our vice principle so that I would get every word correctly said by him, and that I don’t publish anything that he did not say.
So, this is the third week that I have had my iPad. I have continued to discover new uses and my mom has also been using it to. I didn’t even know she knew what an IPad was, and how to work and operate it. She has even bought a few things on it. At home, we do have a dell computer, but the internet doesn’t work very well on it, and you can’t do anything on it. I was even thinking about buying an iPad for my family. I mom travels a lot, and I could see her taking notes and using it a lot. As well as myself. I have found myself pulling out this new glowing rectangle to use during class, for class. I have asked the majority of my teachers if it was okay if I do this. And they all trusted me not to use it inapropriately, which was very flattering.
Also, Wednesday was the Iowa High School Press Association conference at the Iowa Memorial Union. Throughout the sessions and day, I used all of the time. I especially liked the Notability application because you can take a picture, and post it on your note sheet. As well as HTML codes, text, web clip, take a photo, highlight certain key words, draw or place a figure or shape, and even use your own handwriting. It is by far the best note taking app I have ever used. It proved itself to me during the conference where I was able to organize all of my notes by each session that I went to.
I have used several other apps on my new favorite tool. I made a Storify on it with all of my favorite tweets of the past week. It was a lot of fun going back, and looking at all of the tweets that I have favorited. I got a good laugh on several of those. I have embedded a code at the bottom of this post for you all to view.
Ipad Blog #4
For my fourth week, I used my Ipad to video tape wrestlers for the 2012-2013 wrestling season pre analysis. I posted the video on Vimeo and you can view it below.
