The iPad, iBooks, and some very smart 7th graders and their teacher

This story comes from MacLife. Andrea Santilli at the Woodlawn Beach Middle School in Gulf Breeze, FL, realized the potential of iBooks Publisher and got her 7th grade Advanced Life Science Students involved in a project.

The project culminated in an interactive field guide to the flora and fauna of Northwest Florida called Creatures, Plants, and More!. I just downloaded it from the iBooks Store. It’s free, so go see what some very smart kids and their teacher did.

I remember school reports with construction paper and library paste and pictures cut out of old issues of The National Geographic. (Sigh).

I will show this e-book at my presentation on June 6th.
