Our Videos of Apple in the Classroom

Watch two videos we filmed in St. Aidan's NS, Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford; where the children and teachers were kind enough to show us how they use their Apple equipment in their classrooms everyday. We see the iPad being used for Learning Support - for reading, writing, maths, speech, art, spatial awareness and co-ordination improvement. We also see a sixth class pupil using the Mind Maps app on the iPod touch to review a book. (Apologies for the quality of sound. You may need to turn up your volume.)
