Many of today's Career and Technical Education jobs use an Ipad daily. I prepare my students to enter the workforce after high school as college is not the goal of every student. I would like the students to feel comfortable using the Ipad and working with the apps so that when they apply for jobs, they will already have the experience and comfort level required by the employer. Opportunities are limited in our rural area, but we are close enough to Richmond for students to get jobs upon leaving school. Metropolitan students will already have this skill set, I just want to help these students develop the skills.
