I use a handout that I created (attached) that is about as basic as I can get. The iPad does so many things that I try to do a few things that the workshop attendees will remember. I also depend heavily on questions from the attendees so they can get specific information on things that they are having problems with or may be interested in. I find that all the attendees usually get something from these questions. I also combine iPad and iPhone in these workshops since the operating systems are the same which makes the functionality virtually the same for both. I tried a “iPad: Beyond the Basics” workshop but I had about half the attendees that needed the basics, so that it didn’t work out well with such a range of knowledge levels in the class. I draw heavily from the New York Public Library website which has handouts available for their workshops in PDF form. https://sites.google.com/a/nypl.org/techconnect/home/class-handouts-by-serie...

I am wondering if anyone who has taught this before would be willing to share their instructional outline/class materials. Hate to reinvent the wheel.
