1. I have learned that the Ipad needs to be synced to our laptop using my itunes account.
2. The Netbooks seems like they will be more kid friendly than a laptop. It seems like they are lighter weight and easier to move around the classroom. I really liked the video on how children can take pictures/videos using the Netbooks. The convenience of having them save in a folder or the desktop makes it really easy to manage.
3. For management, the kids and I will come up with rules and procedures. A lot of modeling on how to take a good care and use of our devices will be necessary. I will spot those "tech" students to help monitor the use of ipads and netbooks, and support their classmate.
Make sure when you set up your itunes account that it is done with your school email address and doesn't have a credit card attached!
