Fwd: What's New at iPads in Education?

[Jess McCulloch]

Hi everyone!

In one of my last posts I think I put a link to this network - iPads in Education. I thought I'd just send along this summary newsletter from them so you can get an idea of the sorts of things that get discussed in this community. I particularly liked the post about projecting your iPad wirelessly with a $15 app rather than Apple TV.

Have a great Friday!
Jess
