As we are less than a month from 2,000 iPads entering the hands of our middle and high school students, teachers during today's Lunch N' Learn will learn about the Reminder App. Every student and teacher will have the Reminder App on their iPad and/or on their iPhone.I believe this app will provide an instant "to do list" based on a number of options.
- Students can create assignment reminders based on a time
- Students can create assignment reminders based on leaving a location or arriving at a location.
- Students can create assignment reminders using Siri
- Students can create assignment reminders based on priority
My favorite is the "Remind me at a location" feature in which I can state a specific address and the reminder pops on the iPhone home screen as I either LEAVE or ARRIVE at an address. This will be perfect for students who are arriving at home.
Consider encouraging students to use the Reminder App and as a teacher try it! It may just be the "To Do" app that makes things "To Done"
