Our Board of Education then announced we were now a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) district, but did not provide the professional development time to support this initiative. Meaning, students can get to the tool and create it regardless of whether they are using a PC, MAC, iPad, or Android. This is not always easy to decipher.

Yesterday I learned from a TCEA Tweet that Google has launched an app search feature. What a cool tool for those of us working in mobile learning environments - whether they be individual teacher devices, pods of classroom devices, 1:1, or BYOD - to use to explore app possibilities without having to log into an app store first!

These were the pressing questions of the time – a time 8-months after the release of the first iPad and 6-months before the release of the first Chromebook. Then there was the iPad. Appealing to all ages for all occasions, the iPad topped the market in the following years after its release. Will the cloud continue to reign?

Not surprisingly, it takes a lot more than a room full of computers, iPads, and apps to turn “tech ed” from marketing to mainstream. If not, what if the parent doesn’t have an up-to-date computer/iPad at home? That might be as simple as a Google Hangout while the class is occurring or a webcast of the completed class.

I was excited to trial a Chrome-based tablet to see how it measured up to the iPad. I am, as you are probably aware, a fan of Chromebooks, however, I also love iPads and the wonderful things you can do with them in the classroom! Keep in mind that this voice typing works really well, better than the iPad in my opinion.
