Content+Creation+with+the+iPad

=**Creating Content with the iPad**= The iPad is changing the educational landscape. Students can make movies, music and photographs. Teachers can put together professional-looking documents, presentations, and spreadsheets no matter where they are. And that's just the beginning. This hands-on session is designed for an existing iPad user who wants to get beyond basic applications.

= **Apps for Content Creation** = As educators, our task is no longer simply to deliver static content. That is a bygone era. Rather, if we are to foster an environment of critical thinking among our students, we need to be able to author new content, create scenarios and tell stories that make the content material alive, tangible, and relevant. To an even greater degree, we need to put the ability to do this in the hands of our students. When they can synthesize a concept and use it to convey a message or idea to others, it is then that we know that true learning has taken place.
