They may not wanting to stand in front of the class by handing them a tablet at their desk I can support while they present. In my experience students are more willing to engage in this less threatening and supported environment. They volunteer more often. This make my lessons a better experience for all students. The with the addition of the tablet projected on a whiteboard allows me to engage students in the class area. I can wander with students and not be pinned to the whiteboard. This is a big improvement in the academic and behavior within the classroom as teacher proximity has been report to increase both.
In addition in this era of covid this technology is a huge asset if we ever need days of online and home instruction. I would have a portable whiteboard. I could use it everyday.
I am asking for an Apple tablet specifically because my classroom has an Apple Tv.
