<p><strong>Q1. Will the name of everyone who applied be published?<br />
</strong>A1. No.</p>
<p><strong>Q2. Is this course available for staff dev credit? or Drake credit?<br />
</strong>A2. Yes, it is available for both staff dev credit and/or Drake credit.</p>
<p><strong>Q3. Will there be another round in the spring?</strong><br />
A3.   This round completes our available funding from the district technology budget, so the district will not have any additional rounds this school year.  However, we are working with schools and parent groups, encouraging them to assist with the effort to provide additional iPads for classrooms. </p>
<p><strong>Q4. I know someone who didn’t get accepted, and they still <em>REALLY</em> want to try iPads in their classroom, what do I tell them? </strong><br />
A4.  Encourage them to  speak to their building principal to make sure they are aware (as they may not have been aware that they even applied).  Should your building or parent groups help assist with getting additional iPads,  it would be helpful to make sure the principal is aware of their  interests.</p>
