May - 'Revising previously learnt skills and learning new ones'

3/6/2019

Over the last month we have been revising previously learnt iPadding skills and also learning new ones. We’ve visited the camera, photo, email, safari, calendar and Apple News Apps again.

We had a history lesson and watched a couple of YouTube clips about Steve Jobs and Xerox and the Apple Company. Very interesting! We checked out the Settings app and looked at iCloud, General, our iPad storage and our battery status.

Now that we are feeling more confident about apps, we have followed up with installing and deleting apps. A good tip is to check whether or not the app is free, read the description and most importantly read the reviews.

Lastly we began exploring the world of podcasts. So many to choose from.... We initially searched the Australian ABC selection, but when I say ‘world’ that is literally the case. Podcasts can be sourced from all over the world. Amazing!
