Why?
This session is designed to help teachers and schools reduce their reliance on printing by utilising the capabilities of iPads. Participants will learn how to print a PDF directly into OneNote for annotation, provide digital solutions to sharing home learning, manage schedules effectively using digital calendars, and streamline assessments and parental forms with Microsoft Forms. In the final part of the session, there will be a collaborative Q&A where participants can share their common printing tasks, and the digital team will provide tailored digital alternatives. By the end of the workshop, you’ll have practical solutions to help you go paperless and make the most of your iPad in the classroom and school.
