During our Study Skills class, my students benefit most when you guide them through the lesson, especially in math. It's easier for them to understand how to solve the equations if you walk them through it. With the use of the iPad and the pencil stylus, I can easily connect it to my laptop and show my students how to solve the problem just like I'm writing on the white board. It can also make them more engaged and makes them understand better since they have a clearer view of what I'm doing and writing on the screen. Guided practice, small and whole group instructions have been my way of helping them understand the concepts.
