Apple Everyone Can Create PLN

Are you ready to learn new skills to help you and your students be more creative while using iPad? In our PLN you will learn and practice creative skills that you will take back to your students to create artifacts of learning. You will share some of those amazing creations in the next session and then learn another skill. It will be a mix of virtual, and face to face sessions which will alternate between Membertou and Dartmouth. INTERESTED? APPLY HERE!

Don't forget

September 15 is the Deadline to Apply!

Have a student who needs step by step checklists?

Then this is the AI you want to check out! Type in anything you want to break down into smaller tasks and like magic it creates a list for you. If you’re finding some steps still a bit large, click on that step and tap the magic wand and it will break it down further. Amazing help for students who need help with that skill.

These tools can function like personal assistants: Ask AI to create a study schedule, simplify a complex idea, or suggest topics for a research paper, and it can do that. That could be a boon for students who have trouble managing their time, processing information, or ordering their thoughts. Chronicle of Higher Ed
