          Education Department for the
        
        
          developmentally disabled students to
        
        
          use.
        
        
          Keith said she installed a number
        
        
          of useful apps on to the iPads.
        
        
          One example that she said proves
        
        
          particularly useful for some of
        
        
          the students has been an app that
        
        
          translates speech to text on the
        
        
          screen.
        
        
          In addition, some of the teachers
        
        
          have found that the iPads are
        
        
          more useful for editing videos and
        
        
          images that are relevant to lesson
        
        
          plans, whereas laptops remain more
        
        
          relevant for typing papers.
        
        
          “The iPad is a little more graphic-
        
        
          oriented,” said Keith.
        
        
          Keith also said that last year was
        
        
          the first year that the school allowed
        
        
          students to bring their own tablets
        
        
          and laptops into the classrooms.
