__**iPad Training Series**__
Join us for this exciting new series on the iPad. You may pick and choose or attend 7 out of 8 sessions to receive 1 SB-CEU. If you are a beginner you will definitely want to attend the first three sessions as we will delve into the how-tos, tips and tricks for using an iPad and how to be more productive with it and its applications. The first hour of each session will be instruction and the last 30 minutes will be sharing time. So if you have a program to share, please be prepared to share! Some of the things you will learn how to do in the 8 sessions is how to take pictures and videos and create tutorials, how to digital storytell, explore math, science and literacy applications, do research, and how to turn you iPad into an interactive whiteboard. Each session is only $5.00 to attend or $40 for the entire series. Questions contact Nancy Manning at nmanning@inghamisd.org 517.244.1467

**Using Apple TV in the Classroom**

While using the Apple VGA Adapter to mirror your iPad2 works, I would suggest another solution for teachers that are interested in using their classroom data projectors to mirror their iPad for the entire class to see. In Mason, we have been using Apple TV along with a HDMI to VGA Converter to create a wireless mirroring solution for our iPad2s. This set up will allow teachers the freedom to instruct using their iPad2 from any location in the room. No longer will the teacher be tethered to their VGA cables or computers! I have placed the equipment list for an Apple TV order below and on the Pages and Files tab of this wiki. If anyone has any questions, please feel free to contact Ted Berryhill, Mason Public Schools Technology Coach @ 517.676.0282 or tberryhi@mason.k12.mi.us.
