DOVE BEAUTY CAMPAIGN - what is supposed to be"beautiful"

We all want to look our best and we are subjected by the media as to 'what is beautiful"
forgetting that what we SEE is not REAL as we are.
Dove Beauty Campaign has done alot of good helping us see the differences in how makeup and photobrushing can make the BEST appear so picture perfect.

See for yourself by watching this video and live life knowing you are not alon.

iPad updates

 iPAD - educator discount. Wish I had money to buy a ten pack of iPADs for a group of
students- I'd get a big $20 discount. Hmmmm not much of a reduction for educators
when their budgets are being slammed on a daily basis and taking another furlough day
is always in the works. 
There is a new iPhone / iPad app that will enable one to pass along a presentation or content file to various methods of interchange for presentation and sharing purposes.

 mighty meeting for iPAD

It is still in the pre-order stage so don't start on what it can do. I remember people ragging the iPod and the iPhone when they first came out. NOT me!!  I LOVE them!

iPAD empowers Multi-learners

Apple dishes new iPad details on 3G, iBooks, more

Looking for a good review of the new iPAD, my suggestion is to read the MacWorld article.
Thanks to a generous "friend of Falmouth Schools" I get a hard copy each month to share with
my students but here it is online.

Yes, the camera will be missed from the iPad but being able to read and write with more ease on a larger platform than the iPhone yet more portable than a laptop- the advantages are here.

Great for multi-sensory learners, the iPad offers iBooks (free download) and voice over reading with preferences for left or right ears.
