Wish I'd found this sooner!
Last fall, my school district handed me a brand new iPad to use with my students with disabilities. I was excited, but soon learned that using this wonderful tool was going to take some work and planning to move from "playing" with the iPad to strategically using it for instruction. I spent hours learning how to set up my iPad and this book would have cut that time tremendously! Even after using the iPad for months, this book taught me some short cuts I didn't know about. The book is well written--instructions are clear and useful and there's even a bit of humor sprinkled in! Lots of screenshots make it very easy to follow along on your device. I liked how apps/suggestions were provided for different age groups and subject areas like music and art. Obviously, new apps come out every day and it would be impossible to cover them all in a book, but this is a great place to get started.
