iPad Primer with Embedded Video Tutorials
This page is one in a series of screens that display the learning objectives covered in the course EDUC 439/639: iPad Apps for Educators. The learning modules are in the iPad Primer, which students download to their iPads from Apple's iBookstore. Embedded in the modules are show-me movies that illustrate the tutorials and make them interactive. What powers this multimedia learning environment is the iPad's support for the <video> tag, which enables authors to embed movies on iBooks pages. One of the byproducts of working through the iPad Primer is that you will become able to write your own multimedia EPUB documents, if you would like to author a multimedia eBook for publication at Apple's iBookstore.
Chapter 21: Securing the iPad
After completing this chapter, you will be able to:
- Configure iPad security features that can help you keep someone unauthorized from gaining access to your data.
- Set a passcode whereby the iPad prompts you to slide an onscreen control to unlock it.
- Make the passcode a simple four-digit number, or make it a more complex password harder to guess.
- Set the iPad to erase its data after ten failed passcode attempts.
- Use the Find My iPhone app to locate your device if you lose track of your iPad, iPhone 4, or iPod Touch running iOS 4.2 or later.
- See your lost device on a map and make it display a message, play a long loud sound, lock itself, change its passcode, or permanently delete all your data that is on the device.
- Understand that in order for Find My iPhone to work, you must first install and activate Find My iPhone on the device before it gets lost.
- Know how to see the AppleID that is associated with your device.
- Understand that the device you use to find the lost one must be logged on to the same AppleID as the lost one.
