9 Sherwin used the same app that Ian trialled with his Year 8 class. Here are the results:
The students indicated that they enjoyed using the iPads. This was visible in the lesson; all were highly engaged. It was pleasing to note that although a game, the students felt that they learnt from using the app, with 25 indicating more than in a 'normal' lesson. Most said the app was easy to use - though some found it challenging for the first minute or so whilst they worked out what they could control.
