I came across this series of blog posts in looking over the myriad of newsletters and feeds that I scan regularly (great when you stay on top of it, a pain when you've been on holidays for a few weeks!).
Anyway, this is a short series of posts about how one fellow in the states decided to use iPads in his classroom. Note the emphasis is on the TEACHING not the apps for the ipad. He is using Blooms Digital Taxonomy and the ipad is merely the tool....lots of open ended problem solving which still involves explicit teaching!

Move to the second part of the series to see a movie of an iPad band...the options are exponentially growing by the day!
