Managing a Classroom Set of iPads

This is a website about how to manage iPads in a classroom.  Students should each be given their own iPad that they grab from the charging station and return each day.  This will give the students ownership over their iPad and they should be taught how to care for the iPads.  The teacher should put screen protectors on them and even a case might be a good idea. 

This teacher suggests having one to two days practice with a new app and then all questions should not be asked during the lesson.  I like the ideas of having each student have their own iPad and the protective features for the devices.  I think it is too unrealistic for students not to be able to ask questions until after a lesson.  I feel like if the student got behind in the lesson because they could not figure out a feature on their iPad then they would stay behind and not understand the content.  As a teacher I want to integrate technology but my students learning the content is much more important to me.  This website gives an idea about setting up the iPads.  The teacher will need to open an iTunes account and add the iPads to the account and then download apps.
