11. No. But A Good Lesson Plan is.
Teacher needs to
Have effective classroom
management skills
Create useful and productive
assignment
Pace and balance lesson plans
between face-to-face learning
and using iPad apps for learning

12. Five Critical Mistakes
Schools Make with iPad
1. Focusing on content apps.
Q. Are we only looking for apps to match the curriculum?
2. Lack of Teacher Preparation in Classroom Management of iPads.
Q. Do I have a LMS / CMS for this course?
3. Treating the iPad as a computer an expecting it to serve as a laptop.
Q. Am I engaging active learning?
4. Treating iPad like multi-user devices.usi
Q. 1-1 model: Do our students have their own iPad?
5. Failure to communicate a compelling answer to “Why iPads?”
Q. iPad is the tool, what is your goal?
The language proficiency is the goal.
