Brookview Students Tell Why They Like iPod and iPad Technology

A YouTube video produced entirely by students at Brookview Elementary tells why students there love working with the iPod and iPad technology in the classroom.

A new YouTube video posted yesterday is providing a firsthand account of how students at Brookview Elementary School students are using the iPod and iPads to learn.

Produced entirely by a Brookview fifth-grader, the five-minute video pieces together interviews with students in all grades as they give their opinion on what they like best about working with the technology. Their responses, according to the YouTube profile, were completely candid.

Brookview Elementary students are one of only a few Waukee schools working with the iPod and iPad technology. It's the only elementary school in the Waukee school district that uses them in the classroom.
