Possible application of tablets for Education

Understanding the needs of students and schools, what solutions are available, what advantages and disadvantages they have and what you should consider before deploying tablets in the classroom.Tablets are cable of offering enhanced E-books featuring images, video and audio. These elements are impossible to include in print or in a standard E-book.Though tablets are a recent phenomenon, many students in high school and college have been using smartphones for years, and are already well-acquainted with touchscreen technology. Because they’ve become so accustomed to using these devices, students are increasingly expecting to use them in the classroom setting. When classrooms don't implement what has now become "everyday" technology, we’re doing students a disservice.

  I think it is appropriate using tablets for primary education.

Studies on the use of tablets in an education environment, such as one conducted at secondary schools in Quebec and French-speaking Belgium, show they can yield a number of benefits for students in terms of improving:
  • Motivation
  • Publishing, sharing and searching for information
  • Collaboration
  • Developing IT skills
  • Creating a more individual approach to learning
  • Flexibility in terms of space and time
  • Creativity.

 Classrooms are their own little society and for years, teachers have aimed to broaden horizons through pen pal programs and field trips.

  How Tablets are changing the students behavior of learning  itself.


  • Some of the coolest apps on the market are geared towards science buffs. Your class will come alive when you assign them the job of using Star Walk for iPad. everything from the periodic table of elements to brain science, anatomy, plants, glossaries- apps can be the springboard for scientific curiosity.


  • Public speaking is an important skill for students to learn.
  • In past we used power point presention  Now, tablets have fantastic apps that can be used to do real-time drawing, writing, and animation during a presentation. Students can circle, highlight, or write in points as they present their latest research or findings.

  •  Tablets provide an instantaneous connection between parents, students, and teachers. It may be easy to lose a handwritten note or assignment, but as the tablet goes back and forth between home and school.

     As I have mention there are many possible applications of tablets.we can use those in primary     education.tablets are useful and helpful in education sector.
