Mimio for iPad

I was wondering if there would be a mimio app for the iPad? I know Mimio has its own "pad," but it would be great to be able to create lessons at home using the iPad rather than using a computer.

Can't use Splashtop at school

Has anybody found a solution for those of us who cannot use Splashtop through our district's proxy server? It is a great app and I would love to use it, but our proxy server blocks it at school. Are there any other remote desktop apps for the iPad that do not need to stream?

Apple TV

If you are looking to walk around with your iPad, project that image, and interact with it using the tools...try the Apple TV. It is remote device that you connect to your PC/projector. It costs $99 and will allow you to walk around the room with the image on the iPad projected for the class to see. I can't see why you couldn't use the tools than on the board as with Screen Annotations.
The rep from Apple computer was at our district doing a demo and watching him with the Apple TV was great.
Here is the link to learn more. http://www.apple.com/appletv/

Use your personal tablet instead of the Mimio tablet

I think this is a great idea, and that it has to happen as well. As more and more teachers begin to use tablets within the classroom, and as more and more students begin to use eTextbooks, it only makes sense to be able to control your Mimio tools and share your Mimio content across platforms. An good, functional app would be a great way to do this!

mimio apps?

I was just thinking that it would be cool to have apps to download to mimio just like you have apps to download to i-pad. Even better if you could find a way to use the apps you downloaded to i-pad to be used on the mimio. The more technology talks to each other, the more uses you can get out of it.

Doceri App

I have a colleague that uses an app called Doceri. The app is fairly expensive but she seems to love it as a teaching tool in her classroom. I believe that the app itself is free but there is software that runs on the computer as well. It does give teachers the flexibility to move around the room while students can participate on the board with the mimio teach.

SplashTop!

I have been using SplashTop on my IPAD now for a couple of weeks to interface with my teacher presentation computer + projector + Mimio and it's AWESOME! I have complete mobility around my technology classroom, while still having all of the capabilities of using the Mimio. For my classes of younger students, I can locate myself close to kids who need that teacher proximity, while allowing students to use the Mimio stylus up at the board, yet still interact with the presentation when I need to do so. It's well worth the $5 I paid for it to interact w/the Mimio! A colleague of mine purchased the $20 Splashtop for whiteboards and it blown away by it and its functionality with Mimio. I am considering...

Keeping it Simple

I don't have any high tech methods for using the MimioView with Apple's iPad but I've been having huge success with demonstrating the iPad apps to my training groups while using the View. It is much easier than walking around the room trying to hold the iPad and navigate to or through the apps I am training on or sharing. This one is just a no-brainer.

Hopefully others will share more effective ways to utilize the MimioView with the iPad.

Mimio and Ipad

I tried to use Remote Mouse a free app for iPad with mimio notebook. I was able to use it as a pointer but was not able to access any of the other notebook tools. I plan on trying the two apps listed here. It would be nice for the kids to be able to connect to it too. All my students have iPads. It would be great for the students to be able to connect and write on or move things around without passing a mimio pad or ipad around. Also, I would like an app to use the ipads as a clicker instead of the mimiovote. If anyone has any ideas on how to make this work, I would appreciate any input.

Explain Everything

Thanks for the information about Splashtop! It looks like an amazing resource. I had heard of another option, "Explain Everything" which is a presentation creation/delivery app. It's not remote desktop software like Splashtop, but it does look like it might be interesting as an alternative to a Mimio lesson. I'd be interested to hear if any has any experience with it!

Splashtop and Network Security

We have heard a lot about how great Splashtop is as a remote desktop app. Unfortunately, we are not able to use the app in our district due to the security threat it poses for our network. Has anyone else experienced this reaction in their school system? I am also wondering how other districts are getting around the network security issue. Maybe Explain Everything will be an option.

Splashtop Whiteboard

I work for Austin ISD and recently loaded Splashtop Whiteboard (a $20 app) and Splashtop Streamer (free) on my Mac and had no problems with the iPad 2 "talking" to the district laptop. Whiteboard comes with basic drawing tools, some good backgrounds, esp. for math, and had reveal and spotlight features. I created some simple activities using Word and ppt and then had the students use the iPad to complete the activities. You can take snapshots of their work and the jpeg is saved in a Splashtop folder. I liked the remote desktop idea.

Instead of Mimio for the iPad what about iPad using Mimio?

As some other members commented, my suggestion is the Splashtop Remote Desktop app (US$ 1.99). Once you run it, your iPad becomes a remote to your computer (PC or Mac). So why would you wait for an "Apple limited" version of mimio software if you can use it at its full capacity on your computer?

Mimio and iPad

Very interesting discussion. I was curious if this was a possibility so plan to research the app to make it work. I am not so interested in creating .ink files on my iPad, but rather work with students in small group with them. From what I"m reading I believe this is possible.

Mimio and iPad

I am super excited for this to happen. The two main things I know are 1. It has to be free and 2. It has to happen. In less than ten years I predict that there will no longer be desktop computers or laptops in the classroom- we will all be iPads and tablets maybe even smaller- phone size. We are all going mobile and I can't wait for Mimio to jump on board. I think it will be a great blend.

'Droid platform also!

Don't forget the Android platform also! Personally, I like the iPad, but not the price. I'm looking forward to the Amazon Fire tablet which is much cheaper, but runs on Android. I believe that most (if not all) of the apps I will need are available on Android. Mimio needs to step up and do a Android app. Apple is getting better with flash, but it will still be a while before it has any flash capabilities.

Android with Splashtop and Mimio

I have not been successful in manipulating the Mimio with my Android (Asus) tablet and the SplashTop app. I don't know if it's a bug or communication problem with the app, mimio, and/or Android. If someone finds a solution, I would be very interested!

Splashtop App

Hello
the Splashtop Apps are a good solution for working on Mimio lessons from your ipad but are not free. I wonder if TeamViewer might work...it is free and remotes to Mac or PC.

compatibility

How do you find apps that work with other classroom items with have that are electronic. Also, streamlining is good but I think sometimes it may be better for students to see us use multiple facets of our technology. I will check it out...do you know if this goes any further with Apple products?

Splashtop

Get the Splashtop Remote app on your I-pad. It will enable you to create mimio lessons on your I-pad. It's a great app.

Ipad and Mimio

Right now, the iPad does not support flash animations, Java, or the MimioStudio software (among others.) There is a Mac version of MimioStudio, however - so you can use your Mac for creating lessons. The MimioPad is not a computer as the iPad is, but rather an input device to bring the MimioStudio tools to your students. There are several apps that allow you to control your PC from your iPad - might that be what you are looking for? Using one of those apps, you could conceivably create Mimio lessons on your iPad - as it accesses your home computer.

It would be great but I think

It would be great but I think with the limitation with the Ipad it would be impossible. I use a tablet PC and that works great.

I use a motion J3500 Tablet. It is great. Here is the website. A little spendy but worth it
