The i Pad is a powerful educational device-versatile, mobile, flexible, and accessible to all learners, including those with disabilities.
Dr. Luis Pérez draws on years of classroom teaching and his own experience with a visual impairment to offer savvy tips and strategies for making the most of the i Pad.

Teachers and parents of students in general education and special education settings will learn about the huge number of up-to-date i Pad applications that they can use today. Perez’s book is especially helpful for developing Individualized Education Programs (IEPs).
