While many people embrace change and technology, many other people are staunch opponents of bringing this technology into our classrooms. Those who oppose bringing education into a technological world with the iPad believe it could cause harm to students' health, such as internet addiction, depression or vision problems. These opponents also believe that such a device is too ubiquitous and that this young generation is just a technologically dependent world, obsessed with tablets, smart phones. They believe that our students would benefit greatly from less exposure to devices, not more (Harlan, 2012). Some of these same naysayers are making us aware that there are other limitations to using devices like the iPad in the classroom. One limitation is cost. Those who argue about the cost make a reasonable argument. A device alone can cost between $200 and $500. This cost is without even considering the cost of apps or accessories needed to get the best use in the classroom. Some may say that children cannot learn information like they do from a textbook. There is also the problem that some people may believe that reading ability may decline because the student will no longer read to learn. In a study carried out by the Ministry of Education, it was found that if we integrate such technology into the classroom, it does not influence the amount of learning that takes place in the classroom, but it increases the level student engagement (Means, Toyama, Murphy, Bakia, & Jones, 2010). Attributing student engagement to the use of apps and technology in the classroom, others argue that even if students are engaged, the novelty effect must come into play at some point. It is argued that...... middle of article ......January 11, 4). Mathematics that moves: schools adopt the iPad. The New York Times.
