Tanya Meyer is a grade 11 student at Northcliff High School in South Africa. She has written an eBook on how to use an iPad at school. In 2012, she started using her iPad in the classroom. She now does all her homework, projects and studying on the iPad. This approach allowed her enough time to play 2 first team sports for her school and become the top academic student in her grade.
She has noticed that learners are keen to use technology but don’t know where to start. That’s when she decided to write a “Teen Guide to School iPad Use” based on her experience.
In the eBook she describes the study technique that she had developed as well as how to utilize the iPad for schoolwork.
She has published the eBook on ZA Books for R50.
Her goal is to reach as many students as possible and raise awareness about the benefits of using iPads in the educational environment.
