Canby school district 3rd graders have I-pads in the classroom

I heard a quick blurb on the radio about all the 3rd graders in the Canby school district having I-pads to use in the classroom. All the teachers were raving about how great of a tool they are and how they let the kids create and share their work with others. Seems like technology is taking over completely in the classroom.

  1. This reminds me of an article I read. I don’t remember the title of the article, but it is about how books and handwriting are no longer present in the classroom. E-books and computers, iPods, iPads, iPhone are taking over and replacing traditional books and students are no longer able to handwrite. Technology is great, but there should be a balance between the two.
