Share Your Favorite Resources To Win An iPad 3 (Yes, 3)!

Topics: , , , ,

Calling all teachers, education administrators, students, and parents!

ClassroomWindow needs your help! They’re looking to compile the ultimate list of education technology resources and want to reward you for helping out. This isn’t just a token $5 gift card to a gas station though, they want to give you an iPad 3! Yes, that’s a 3. As soon as the next generation iPad becomes available, they’ll send it to a lucky winner randomly chosen from all entries.

How To Enter

Just use the embedded PunchTab form below to enter! It will walk you through the different ways you can enter. If you’ve entered but want a better chance at that iPad, you can share more education technology resources in the comments of this post. You can enter as many times as you like! Each resource counts as one entry.

The contest ends on March 31, 2012 or as soon as the next generation iPad is announced. Since Apple is super secretive about these kind of things, ClassroomWindow is estimating it’ll happen sometime in March. Therefore, they’ll do the drawing the day after the iPad announcement or 3/31/12, whichever comes first.

  3. 1.) Google Lit trips are a great web resource for teaching while reading classics. 2.) WeVideo for letting students put together their own video presentations for class. 3.) iPad app PuppetPals. After a lesson or book, I’ll have students make their own recording to show what they learned and how they interpret it. 4.) TED Talks – not only do they inspire me and give me great new ideas, but many of their videos are great to share with my students. 5.) Edublog Award winners. If you go to the Edublog website and look up this years winners, the amount of resources out there are endless.
