Working with Apple Configurator

Here you will find tutorials, tips and tricks for managing iPads with Apple Configurator.  It is a wonderful (if not finicky) tool that will allow you to set restrictions, add apps, and manage iPads for your classroom.  It was a bit difficult to use in the beginning, but after a few years of managing iPads one at a time through iTunes, this is a huge time-saver!  I hope you will find the information here helpful.  If you have questions that I haven't answered, please go to the contact page and let me know what you need.
