How could you as a student benefit from having a school-provided iPad? How would this change your classes? How would this change the way you learn?

As time passes our civilization keeps improving as well as modernizing outdated things. One thing that would be very beneficial to the world is modernizing schools and their classrooms. I believe so because much of the equipment used in schools is not exactly the most up to date. The older equipment can prove a hard time for the teacher to get working correctly and a waste of students time or just a tougher way to learn something that could be taught much easier with new technology. For example, schools now are introducing Ipads and are providing them to students. This, in my opinion, is a brilliant idea because now as we get more modern there won't be a need for any super heavy paper textbooks. Everything could be stored on the iPad. This also makes travel to school much easier because the only things you would have to bring would be your Ipad. This as well would also affect the classroom because the teacher's work would also be made easier, due to the fact that now students could just send their assignments to them instead of collecting papers from the students that could be lost or damaged. This could completely revolutionize the way we learn because not only can we store tons of information on them we could also use websites such as Google and youtube to help further explain something to us if we still don't understand. Therefore I believe that introducing Ipads to schools could be a brilliant way of helping students achieve more learn better.
