Get Involved

The iPads in the Classroom group will be meeting face-to-face multiple times per semester, yet our hope is that the discussion of ideas is ongoing.

The OSU Yammer site at, https://www.yammer.com/osu.edu, is the primary means of communication for the group. If you have not enrolled in the OSU Yammer site you will have to create an account. You can search for the iPads in the Classroom group once logged in to the OSU Yammer site. The group is open and will show up with a search. Once in the group, you will see all of the related discussions and planning.

The iPads in the Classroom group is also using Twitter to share ideas, #LTosu is being used to identify group topics.
