My son's school (Junior Kindergarten to Gr 5) uses iPads as part of their learning environment. We (the Parent Council) are helping fund the purchase of AppleTV devices for the classrooms so students can share what they're doing on the iPad with the whole class.
By all estimations from teachers and students alike, this has been a wonderful tool for teaching and learning.
Now, I don't own any apple products at all, so (having never held an iPad myself) I'm not really sure what they can actually do, so the question "what is this device good for" is one I cannot really answer from personal experience ... but I think in-school work is probably an excellent use-case.
- ericcumbee 12y agoI had a discussion with a former co-worker that is the Lead for A/V and smart class rooms at my former work. They looked at Apple TV to do just that and decided that there were to many security/room for mischief issues for Apple TV. I can't remember who, but they are evaluating a air-play device that offers more granular control. might not be as big of a deal in k-5 as it is in higher ed though.
