iPads

First of all, why is the i not capitalized?  Are they not important?  Actually they are very important.  I am fortunate enough to be able to share a classroom set of iPads.  We use them occasionally, and the students love them.  We were taking a quiz on them a couple weeks back, you could hear a pin drop, and not a single one ever stopped and said it was too hard.  No one complained about not having a pencil, and no one skipped anything.  I know that if we used them everyday, they would probably become boring, but to use them once every couple of weeks, the students love them and are all engaged.  There are a lot of cool things on them, and a lot of cool things that are not on ours.  But I would say in general, they are good for my students.
