Opportunities and Challenges in One-to-One Learning with iPads in K-12 Schools
This case study reports findings from a three-month pilot project of one-to-one learning with iPads in four 9th grade Geography classrooms in a large K-12 school district in the United States.The findings of the study revealed many promising opportunities and technical challenges for both teachers and students.The positive impacts of iPads integration on student learning include active engagement, increased time for projects, and improved digital literacy and digital citizenship.The challenge for student learning is mainly distraction by the multitude of irrelevant apps and websites.With regard to instructional activities, the positive impacts include the implementation of student-centered activities and enhanced teaching practices with updated information.The challenges include a lack of teacher-selected apps and the need for more time to prep and do training.This study recommends continuous faculty development and student training support through innovative approaches to overcome the barriers to one-to-one learning with iPads in the classroom.
