Be not afraid: Embracing the iPad and the wonderful world of apps in the classroom — from FacultyFocus.com by Genevieve Pinto Zipp

Excerpts:

While this initiative was directed over 18 months ago it was not until recently that I had an “aha” moment which helped me to embrace my fear of the unknown and challenge myself to explore the utility of the iPad.

This student helped me to realize that my use of the iPad and the many apps available was limited only by my willingness to think outside the box and try something new. So each week since then I have explored a new app.
