Connected Falkirk: Curricular Carry-Out

Episode 004: iPad and Learning Beyond the Classroom


Listen Later

In episode four, the Connected Falkirk team are joined by Falkirk Council's ICT Curriculum Development Officer, Kerry Abercrombie, and Michael Conlon from XMA to discuss making the most of iPad mobility. We consider how iPad can maximise learning opportunities beyond the traditional classroom in three different spaces: alternative indoor spaces, outdoor campus spaces and extramural school visits.

The discussion is anchored in our three main tenets for CLPL : easy, because moving learning outside of the classroom already brings its own additional challenges; compatible, because you’re not going out-and-about just to use an iPad, it should always support important learning; Useful, because who wants to hear about something you can’t actually make use of?
