Mumbai school tells students, Get iPads

Podar International School, In Mumbai has informed all the students to buy ipads to take part in the learning sessions. 

A school director-principal named as Vandana Lulla, has given a circular last week that affirms the management's conclusion to use the Apple iPad 2 in the classroom.As Some parents feels that the action is impossible and it may also abstract the growth of students.

The circular states, "Parents now have the choice of either purchasing the iPad 2 from the school on an outright basis or avail of a financial scheme on offer. You also need to indicate if it will be purchased by you on your own." 

The school has told the parents to indicate their choice on a form issued by them to help them negotiate bulk orders. The parent of a class II student said, "There has been no consensus on the issue among parents. I am opposed to the move as it will hamper, rather than aid a kid's education. 

As one more parent said that  "I will prefer kid to go ahead with traditional methods in reading and writing, Instead of getting into this electronic gadgets at this tender age. Another parent said If this is the case I will shift my kid to another school if it is something like money making plan.

Infact it looks like a illogical conclusion an examinations has to conduct using the common format and not on iPads.
