iBooks and iAuthor

Education is finally catching up with technology with iBooks and iAuthor. As the mother of three adults, I know well the weight of backpacks teenagers carry today. It is a huge problem. If they don't carry them in there backpacks,they get left at school and never used. iBooks not only offer convenience and accessibility but they provide students with the means to learn in a way that is natural for them. iBooks has some great applications. Students can highlight portions and transfer them to virtual notecards. They can use interactive software and manipulate 3-D models.

iAuthor enables students to create a book they can share with pride. They create the stories and illustrations then publish it to share with others.
