One nice feature of Reflection is that it allows a teacher to freely walk around the room with iPad in hand. No more standing next to the wall hooked up to a projector cable! Reflection creates a wireless AirPlay connection from the iPad to the projector.
Another possible use of Reflection is to have students share their iPad screens, demonstrations, presentations, artwork, music, etc. Students can connect their iPad to your computer via AirPlay right from their seats! (Please note that this only works with iPad 2 and 3, so the Lower School iPads are not compatible with Reflection. For Lower School teachers who are interested in using Reflection with student iPads, please email IT Requests to reserve the Middle School iPads.)
If you are interested in trying Reflection, you can download a trial version that will allow you to try the app for ten minutes. If you decide you would like a copy of this software for your computer, just contact IT and we will purchase a license for you.
Below is a short video that contains a demo of the Reflection app:
