The number of iPads in classrooms throughout the country is growing at a staggering rate. Educators and school districts are implementing iPad initiatives to enhance instruction. The purpose of this study was to examine high school teachers experiences and perceptions after using the Apple iPad as an instructional tool in the classroom. An extensive review of related literature was conducted in an effort to supply a strong foundation for the conceptual framework, research design, data collection, and analysis of this future study. One-on-one in-depth qualitative research interviews were the main method of collecting data for this study, which led to the researchers understanding of their experience. Subjects for this study were made of three (3) teachers who have been using the iPad in their instruction.
