Following Apple Inc.'s April 2010 introduction of the iPad, School Technology began to hear about these devices being used in Alberta classrooms - not in one and twos but in large numbers. As part of the sector's continuing efforts to monitor emerging technologies in schools, school authorities implementing iPads were invited to send representatives to a one-day event to discuss the opportunities, emerging lessons learned and challenges presented by implementation of iPads into Alberta classrooms. This summary is not intended to promote or encourage any type of pedagogical or technological approach rather its intent is to reflect what was heard.
