  Roslyn High School on Long Island recently started a pilot program using iPads in some classrooms.

  A growing number of schools across the U.S.are using the iPad as the latest tool to teach Kafka in multimedia, history through games and math with step-by-step animation(动画)of complex problems.

  As part of a pilot program, Roslyn High School handed out 47 iPads on Dec.20, 2010 to the students and teachers in two humanities(人文学科)classes.The school district hopes to provide iPads eventually to all 1,100 of its students.

  The iPads are to be used in class and at home during the school year to replace textbooks, allow students to correspond with teachers and turn in papers and homework tasks, and preserve a record of student work in digital files.

  "It allows us to extend the classes beyond these four walls," said Larry Reiff, an English teacher at Roslyn who now posts all his course materials online.

  But educators are still divided over whether practices to give every student a laptop have made a difference academically,

  "There is very little evidence that kids learn more, faster or better by using these machines," said Larry Cuban, a retried professor of education at Stanford University."IPads are excellent tools to attract kids, but then the freshness wears off and you get into hard-core problems of teaching and learning."

  But school leaders say the iPad is not just a cool new toy but rather a powerful and multifunctional tool with a number of applications, including thousands with educational uses.

  "If there isn't an application that does something I need, there will be sooner or later," said Mr.Reiff, who said he now used an application that includes all of Shakespeare's plays.

  Glynis Davis:

  I first piled on the pounds when I was in the family way and I couldn’t lose them afterwards. Then I joined a slimming club. My target (aim) was 140 pounds and I lost 30 pounds in six months. I felt great and people kept saying how good I looked. But Christmas came and I started to slip back into my old eating habits. I told myself I’d lose the weight at slimming classes in the new year…but it didn’t happen. Instead of losing the pounds, I put them on. I’d lost will power and tried to believe that the odd bags of fish and chips didn’t make any difference but the scales don’t lie.

Roz Juma:

  To be honest, I never weigh myself any more—I’ve learnt to be happy with myself. It seemed to me that 1 would be sorry for every spoonful of tasty food that passed my lips. My idea is simple. You shouldn’t be too much thinking about food and dieting. Instead, you should get on with life and stop dreaming of a super - thin body. This is obviously the size I meant to be end, most of a11.I am happy with it.

Lesley Godwin:

  I was very happy after winning Young Slimmer of the Year. I’d look in the mirror unable to believe this slim lady was me! That might have been my problem - perhaps from then on I didn’t pay any attention to myself. Winning a national competition makes everything worse, though, because you feel a complete failure because I’ve put on weight again.

Ros Landford:

  Before moving in with my husband Gavin, I’d always been about 110 pounds, but the pleasant housework went straight to my waist and I put on 15 pounds in a year. Every year so often I try to go on a diet…I’m really good on a few days, then end up having the children’s leftover or eating happily chocolate - - - my weakness. I’d like to be slim, but right now my duty is the children and home. I might take more exercise when my kids are older.
