Exploring the use of iPads and mobile devices in education.
Editing Office web apps on an iPad
Hi, I am wanting our students to be able to edit their Word and PowerPoint documents, via Office Web Apps on their iPad. We are about to implement a Sharepoint environment where students will have their own My Site. This is where they will store Word and PowerPoint documents they are working on.
I want them to be able to edit these documents in a browser. iOS5 supports this but it's clunky with Safari and a little better with iCabMobile. However neither browser supports clipboard so the students can't copy an image and paste into the document.
Any ideas/tips much appreciated.
Regards Tricia

Why not use pages, keynote, numbers? You can save them in alternate formats.
