Customizing the home screen allows easy access for teacher and student. Teachers have a better sense of where apps are and where students can go to find them. I teach first graders and telling them a specific location on the ipad makes a big difference. Using a folder to place all math apps together not only keeps the home screen clean but hepls my students find the app quicker. Teachers can show students how to do this in the classroom and then they can take it home to use on their own devices. As an elementary teacher I have always believed in the KISS method and using folders definitely uses this method.

use the iPad instead of graph paper to graph the forms for an outdoor structure. Bloom’s Analysing- using the graph paper to construct. This could
also be a form of Augmentation
because students could easily manipulate the iPad and clear and reuse
the graph paper thus giving functional improvement
Modification:
.59 Students use the iPad for writing which include photos and pictures of
items they wish to sell in order to make money for their project. Bloom’s Applying loading pictures and sharing what they have done
through writing and advertising.
Redefinition:
