- The Internet has very low connection in the photography 1B1.
- I used my iPad to transport a video that I had taken onto the computer. I did this by emailing it. However, because it was too long, I couldn't email the whole thing. Therefore I had to send snippets of the video to my email, then opened it through the email. I tried to find a movie editing app, but they all failed to speed up videos. iMovie needs to be paid for.

Wednesday 23rd January 2013
-Because everything is already on the computer, (photos and documents) I couldn't Annalise my photography work. Although you can upload things to your google drive, it is quite hard to import pictures when there are so many.
-In the lunch hall, the Internet wasn't working. Usually it reaches and so I am able to send emails, do some research, and blog. I don't know if it is because I am too far from the router, or if it is because the server is down. -
- I used the iPad the most in young enterprise as I can quickly show my emails, read from my notes and assign jobs to each member. I was also able to use FaceTime to call my team mates (who had iPhones or iPads also) who were scattered around the school doing their assigned jobs. This was very helpful as it saved me running around whilst trying to do my job also.

Friday 18th January - Day Four
- Used safari to search the movie we are watching and find out what institution is belongs to from in Media.
- It was very useful for referring back to emails whilst taking notes on a to do list. The work for Young Enterprise during lunch and break required going to teachers and getting advice from them, then having to note it all down on the iPad's 'note pad'. By using the iPad, it meant that I did not have to sign into the computers and stay stuck in one place. With the iPad, it's portable so I can send emails, add to my list and also have lunch or even do some practical work.

Thursday 17th January - Day Three
- In media, I downloaded blogger because we currently use this to show our coursework. It was very handy and meant that I didn't have to move to the computer to do my work. It was quite hard using the case because it is quite low, which means you're constantly looking down and straining your neck. Other than that, no other problems.
- At lunch, my young enterprise group had a meeting, through that, I used an app called 'recording lite' to record everything that was said in the meeting. With the multitask feature, I was also able to write up important information from the meeting on Google Drive.
- In photography, we always have to look for new photographers and inspiring photos, using safari, you can easily flip through google images and save them on your drive. You can also search up photographers easily. In this lesson, there are 3 students who are responsible for an iPad and all 3 of us are using the iPads whilst the rest of the class are using the computers.
-The mail app was also very helpful as it is connected to my school mail therefore I can easily email the stock supplier we are using for Young Enterprise.
- I used the camera on the iPad to record my photo-shoot which I needed for my Media homework. I did this by using the case to stand the camera to then record my work. This was very useful as it meant that I could easily record and take pictures without borrowing out a camera. I then can quickly send this from the iPad to my teacher via email.

Wednesday 16th January - Day Two
- Used it in photography, instead of going to the computers, simply just sat at my table and got along with my work. Only problems I faced were some photography websites were blocked and therefore I couldn't see some sites. I used the 'Google Drive' app to write up my semi analysis.
- Again, using 'Google Drive' I done my homework and showed my teacher via the iPad. Also used it for research during class instead of using the textbook.
- The Internet is quite fast and I didn't have any issues with loading safari.
- The 'Yellow Pages' app also is very helpful in looking for places around the area, used this in Young Enterprise (enrichment scheme) to find suppliers.

Tuesday 15th January - iPad Trial Day One
-Specific work aimed at using your device, so we used our iPads, phones etc to research key words and theory's in Philosophy and Ethics.
- When having to copy off the board, I used my iPad as it is much faster and less tiring to type on this instead of hand writing it all out. It also meant that I could type as fast as the teacher was speaking so it was much more practical. This was used in sociology. I used note pad.
- Using the iPad, I could easily search the Internet for things and words that I didn't understand in the textbooks. I also started a new unit in sociology which meant that I could look up exam papers on the subject through safari.
