Public School Board Embraces ipads

An Apple a day is good for student learning.

That seems to be the feeling of the Keewatin-Patricia District School Board.

The board is involved in a number of pilot projects using I-Pads and other computer technologies in the classroom.

Superintendant of Business Dean Carrie says they have set aside 100 thousand dollars as part of their 21st Century Learning Plan.

The public school board is already using I-Pads in one pilot project and Carrie says they have approved 11 more applications under the 21st Century Learning Plan.
