iPad at School: A Holistic Evaluation of the Opinions of Students, Teachers and Parents Concerning iPad Usage

Abstract

<p>The present study contains data collected via end of the year assessments concerning iPad applications created especially for primary schools, and includes analyses of the data. To integrate smart board usage in primary school lessons, various applications were developed to ensure the synchronization of the smart boards and iPads. These applications were used by both students and teachers in class sessions throughout the academic year. At the end of the academic year, the usage of the iPad in the classes, the effects of iPad on class activities and teaching methods; and the opinions of the students, teachers and parents on iPad usage at academics in an educational context were sought and evaluated.  </p>
