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 23: Projecting the iPad
After completing this chapter, you will be able to:
- Understand that projecting the first version of the iPad was troublesome because its projection required special coding supported only by some of the apps.
- See how Apple solved this problem in the second generation of the iPad by creating a feature called mirroring that enables you to project the iPad 2 regardless of what app is running.
- Recognize the four versions Apple makes of the mirroring cable, namely, Composite, VGA, Component (RGB), and Digital AV (HDMI).
- Know when to use these four cables and follow links whereby you can obtain them.
