This lesson is for a math classroom, but can be adapted to fit any grade, subject, or content.  In this lesson, students will use an iPad and its features: Keynote, Pages, Garageband, Numbers, Presentation, and iMovie.  Students will use 3 of those features/programs to create a video lesson consisting of several examples from a topic of their choice.  This project is in place of a term final, so their chosen topic should be from their current term.Image citation: The image is one I created.
