Summary:

• Last lesson we changed from our usual set-up and used the school Ipads instead of the laptops.
•  We started off by introducing the style of navigation for the Ipads to the clients.
• Many of these clients had never used an Ipad before, therefore all aspects such as the power button the home button had to be introduced.
• After covering the basics, we introduced the notion of an application and explained what they are used for.
• We looked at common applications such as the camera, photos, and the notes so that our clients were able to get a rough idea of the practical use of the Ipad in everyday life.
•  We showed clients how to share the pictures that they had taken, or their notes via email and told them to send it to themselves.
• We ended the lesson with a bit of fun, introducing a few games such as paint and chess that can be played on the Ipad.

We did this as our main goal is to ensure that our clients are able to gain and MAINTAIN all the necessary computer skills that could be used possibly for getting a job in the near future.
