Here are some great tips for you to use if you are an iPad school:

To keep kids in one app (or a
webpage(s)) this is what you do (your IPad must be updated to IOS 6):
On IPad :
· Click settings
· Click General
· Click Accessibility (near bottom
of page on right hand side)
· Click Guided Access (under Learning on
the right hand side of the page)
· Click On
· Click Set Passcode
· Type in a code
· Type in code again
(You will not have to do that
again……this is a one-time set up)
Click Home button to go to
main screen
To keep a child working
in one app (they can not go to a different unless you change it ):
· Click app you want the child to work in
· Click Home button 3 times quickly
· Click start (in top right hand corner)
Now the child cant exit that
app until you click the home button 3 times and put in the passcode.
To keep child in a
website(s) (without the ability to type in other website or pick from
bookmarks):
· Click Safari
· Open website you want the students to work in
· In another tab, open same website again
· Click Home button 3 times quickly
· With your finger, draw a circle around the address bar
and bookmark area (a gray area will show around it…make sure the gray area is
not covering the 2 tabs of the open websites)
· Click start (in top right hand corner)
Now your students can work on
the webpage…if they click a link that takes them off of the page, then they can
click a tab to take them back.
