iPad Testimony from an Algeo III Student:

This year for Algeo 3 I used my iPad for the majority of the class. I took notes on PDF files Mr. Koehler sent me. I was able to have much better notes because I could add pictures, shapes, different colors and highlight important sections. This made me comprehend the material better and  I was able to go back and see the important stuff faster. I also completed my homework on my iPad. He would send it to me and then once I was finished I would email it back to him. Using my iPad this year has saved a lot of paper between not packets and homework. Not to mention made everything much more convenient  and accessible for me.
