Smashing iPads and Creating Innovators

This is a great article http://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/edtechresearcher/2012/11/if_you_meet_an_ipad_on_the_way_smash_it.html on how and for what iPads should be used in the classroom.  
The article also discusses the 2012 EdTechTeacher's iPad Summit which is touted as the "first national gathering of educators pioneering the use of iPads and tablets in schools and classrooms".  The Summit facilitator and author of this article is concerned with the possibility of the summit being about the device rather than about the learning.  In his words, "The iPad summit is not about the iPad. The way we are seeking is one where we prepare young people for a life of civic commitment, of self-reflection, and of meaningful work and contributions to community. The way is about unlocking student talent, compassion, and humanity. If the iPad distracts us from defining the way, then we have to smash it."
