Why do we use iPad for students?

iPad apps are expanding the learning experience both inside and outside the classroom. From interactive lessons to study aids to productivity tools, there’s something for everyone.

iPad in the Classroom
Technology helps enhance the learning experience. An Apple iPad Learning Lab provides flexible and convenient access to technology, easily transforming any classroom into a digital learning environment.

Apps for Education
With iPad, the classroom is always at your fingertips. Right now at the App Store, there are thousands of apps available to download. Students can track their assignments, take notes, and study for finals. Teachers can give lessons, monitor progress, and stay organized. And that’s just the beginning.
iWork for iPad: Pages, Keynote, and Numbers
Powerful iWork apps, completely reworked for iPad.
The three iWork productivity applications help students and teachers put together professional-looking documents, presentations, and spreadsheets no matter where they are. Pages is a powerful word processor with simple-to-use layout tools and a large onscreen keyboard. With Keynote, it’s easy to create presentations with stunning animations and effects. And Numbers lets students and teachers build compelling, attractive spreadsheets in minutes, including tables and charts. When you finish what you’ve been working on, use AirPrint to print it out directly from your iPad.

iMovie and GarageBand will uncover hidden talent in the classroom. You can record HD video on iPad, then edit on the large, Multi-Touch display. GarageBand turns your iPad into a musical instrument and recording studio. Play Touch Instruments such as guitar, keyboard, drums, and synthesizers using just your fingers.

iBooks on iPad features a vibrant color screen, crisp text, and a Multi-Touch interface that lets you turn pages with the flick of a finger. It’s also a convenient way to browse, sample, and buy books. Simply download the free iBooks app from the App Store and buy everything from classics to best sellers from the built-in iBookstore.3 Once you’ve downloaded a book, it appears on your bookshelf.

All of the built-in apps on iPad were designed from the ground up to take advantage of the large Multi-Touch screen. So you can flick, tap, and pinch your way through the school day.  

Video Mirroring
With Video mirroring and the Apple Digital AV Adapter (sold separately), your HDTV or HD projection screen becomes a bigger version of your iPad. Students can see the iPad display and every tap, swipe, and flick of your finger — even when you rotate from portrait to landscape. Video mirroring makes it possible to teach using educational iPad apps, movies, videos, and more.  

AirPrint.
Print everything wirelessly.
With just a few taps, you can print your reports, documents, email, and photos right from your iPad to AirPrint-enabled printers over Wi-Fi.2 There’s no software to download, no drivers to install, and no cables to connect.
 
iPad for all.
iPad comes with a screen reader, support for playback of closed-captioned content, and other innovative universal access features — right out of the box. There’s no additional software to buy or install. These features make iPad easier to use for students who have a vision impairment, are deaf or hard of hearing, or have a physical or learning disability.
