Roslyn Hing School on long Island recently started a pilot program using iPads in some classrooms．
A growing number of schools across the U．S．are multimedia, history through gamse and math with step-by -step animation(动画)of complex problems．
As part of a pilot program, Roslyn High School handed out 47 iPads on Dec．20, 2010 to the students and teachers in two humanities(人文学科)classes．The school district hopes to provide iPads eventually to all 1, 100 of its students．
The iPads are to be used in class and at hom during the school year to replace texbooks, allow students to correspond with teachers and tum in papers and homework tasks, and preserve a rocord of student work in digital files．
“It allows us to extend the classes beyond thesefourwalls．”said larry Reiff, an English teacher at Roslyn who now posts all his course mateials online．
But educators are still divided over whether practices to give every student a laptop have made a difference academically．
“Thre is very little evidence that kids learn more, faster of better by using these machines, ”said Larry Cuban, a retried professor of eduction at Staford University．“IPads are excellent tools to attract kids, but then the fieshness wears off and you eget int hard-core problems of teaching and learning．”
But school leaders say the iPad is not just a cool new toy but rather a powerful and multifunctional tool with a number of applications, including thousands with educational uses．
“If there isn't an application that does something I need , there will be sooner or later, ”said Mr．Reiff, who said he now used an application that includes all of Shakespare's plays．

I first piled on the pounds when I was in the family way and I couldn’t lose them afterwards．Then I joined a slimming club．My target was 140 pounds and I lost 30 pounds in six months．I felt great and people kept saying how good I looked．But Christmas came and I started to slip back into my old eating habits．I told myself I’d lose the weight at slimming classes in the new year…but it didn’t happen．Instead of losing the pounds, I put them on．I’d lost willpower and tried to believe that the old bag of fish and chips didn’t make any difference－but the scales don’t lie．
Roz Juma：
To be honest, I never weigh myself any more．I’ve learnt to be happy with myself．It seemed to me that I would feel sorry about every spoonful of tasty food that passed my lips．My idea is simple．You shouldn’t be too much thinking about food and dieting．Instead, you should get on with life and stop dreaming of a super thin body．This is obviously the size I’m meant to be and, most of all, I’m happy with it．
Lesley Codwin：
I was very happy at winning Young Slimmer of the year．I’d look in the mirror unable to believe this slim lady was me! That might have been my problem－perhaps from then on I didn’t pay any attention to myself．Winning a national competition makes everything worse, though．Because you feel the eyes of the world are fixed upon you．I feel a complete failure because I’ve put on weight again．
Ros Langfod：
Before moving in with my husband Gavin, I’d always been about 110 pounds, but the pleasant housework went straight to my waist and I put on 15 pounds in a year．Every so often I try to go on a diet…I’m really good in a few days, then end up having the children’s leftovers or eating happily chocolate－my weakness．I’d like to be slim, but right now my duty is the children and home．I might take more exercise when my kids are older．
