Grade or check assignments
If your students upload work in Google Classroom, is really easy to give feedback, send comments to students and return work so they can work on your feedback.
​
You can use handwritten comments or type if you prefer.
Students can convert a lot of their assignments into PDF files, which makes it very easy for you to add feedback and comments to.
You can upload the "Edited" version so, students can improve their work.
​
Anything done in these apps can be converted to a PDF file:
make great presentations very fast
Adobe Spark Post
PAPER53
Keynote
make student teams
manage time
Many apps to do this. SAND TIMER, is interesting, it has an alarm and its super easy to use.
AIRDROP FILES BETWEEN DEVICES
This is one quick way of sending files between Apple devices. It is very easy to use and saves time. The devices need to be in proximity with each other, and you have to make sure your computer/iPad is set up to "receive" files.
​
It's great to send stuff quickly to student iPads.
Make sure your computer is "discoverable", visible to whoever wants to send you stuff.
On your iPad dashboard make sure Airdrop and Wifi are on.
record tutorial videos
Just use your iPad while you record whatever you are doing. This is a great way to share explanations, ideas, concept maps, illustrations, or teach students specific digital skills.
