The ITS:Team, specifically the Innovation Technology group, is now the proud owner of two Bretford PowerSync iPad Carts! The carts can fit up to 40 iPads each (although each cart only has 30) and with it you can simultaneously sync them to install apps, books, music, videos, podcasts, etc. So with a few clicks of the mouse on the MacBook Pro that comes with the cart, all of the iPads can have the same stuff downloaded to them quickly and easily. For those faculty who want to use iPads in their classroom, we now have an easy way for them to get what they need. Here’s a few pictures of the final assembly of the second cart:
Gerald works to put the iPads in their cases.
Matt is also on hand to put the many iPads in their cases so they are protected when removed from the cart.

A happy team – Melissa, David W., Gerald, and Matt – smiles at a job well done in assembling the cart.

Emily Blakely will be managing the carts and making sure faculty members have access and training when needed, so if you hear of someone who is interested in checking one out, please be sure to let her know.
Thanks, Melissa, for providing the photos of Gerald and Matt putting the iPads in their cases!
ITS:Always fun, never boring
