30 Time-Saving Tips for Teachers and Leaders
Join Apple to learn about built-in apps and features on iPad and Mac that help educators stay organized, manage tasks, gather instructional resources, and more.
Challenge Based Learning: A Framework for Active Learning
Encourage active learning across your school with Challenge Based Learning (CBL) — a collaborative learning experience in which teachers and students work together to learn about compelling issues, propose solutions to real problems, and take action. During this time, we’ll explore fun and engaging activities for iPad and Mac designed to help learners of all ages develop better questions, investigate ideas, and create and implement solutions throughout the CBL process.
Student Assessment with iPad and Mac
Technology has become a critical to formally assessing student understanding. Join us to learn how Apple supports standardized assessment — and why iPad and Mac are supported in all 50 states by all vendors delivering online state tests.
Engaging Early Learners
What do you expect learning to look like for your youngest students? And how can technology play a role? Join us for a discussion around how the use of technology should be intentional and natural, as well as age appropriate to meet the abilities of each learner. We’ll also explore how iPad can help your youngest students communicate, create, and learn at their own pace.
