The introduction of iPads has engaged and enthused staff and learners. Whether teachers have access to one or thirty iPads they can make learning multi-dimensional, enabling students to move from effective research, to improving their presentation skills, and (most important of all) creating. With apps to cover every area of Bloom's Taxonomy iPads are helping to develop workplace skills.
