 * 1:1 iPad and Cloud Storage**

Brian (Allendale Columbia)

-webDAV-- so students could save from home

-storage solution needed to be webdav compatible, free/cheap: looked at dropbox, dropDAV (cheap for education), [|box.net] --> ultimate pick. (brian couldn’t make dropbox folders upload only.)  box.net has an email address associated with each folder. made aliases for those email addresses (upload.teachersname@...). teachers create folders called subject_gradelevel for homework, handouts, text. students have their own personal [|box.net]  accounts using their school email address. (enterprise accounts is over $7grand). teachers can see how often students access docs in their folders in the pro account. teachers can add students by sharing the link to the sharing folder. (box.net has an unsupported webDAV access)

-students own their iPads, add content, etc.

Will iCloud help support cloud storage for Apple Apps/file distributions? NOPE

Textbooks:

eversion language texts (vendor forthcoming)

HMH Fuse (for algebra)

KNO app

Other solutions:

Evernote --to get content back and forth, teachers have premium accounts, and each students make folders that they share with their teachers (shared access with teachers)

Springpad

Google Doc/Apps--have had some trouble with Safari --teachers create collections and share with students Office 2HD

MoodlEZ app-- doesn't work so well
