My classroom is in need of a classroom iPad for learning, communication, and leisure activities. Our technology is currently outdated. My students share only one iPad for learning/leisure activities. This iPad is very old, freezes frequently, and cannot download newer apps. A newer generation iPad could support essential apps such as Starfall, PBS Kids, and most importantly Proloquo2Go, an augmentative and alternative communication app. An iPad with this program could be used as a communication device for my students who are nonverbal or need alternative modes of communication. It would be very beneficial for my class to have an iPad with communication apps such as these in order to model and teach multimodal communication skills. An iPad could also be used as a learning and reinforcement tool. Apps such as Starfall and PBS Kids offer fun yet highly educational material that is perfect for my student’s age group.
