Over the next week, L.A. Unified will give 1,500 teachers a few days of training on using new iPad applications in the classroom.

Two months ago, L.A. Unified's board of education voted to spend $30 million to buy iPads for every teacher and student at 47 district schools. On Monday, the district began training those teachers on how to use them.
