iPad in Education
iPad has changed everything. Including the classroom. It has changed the way teachers teach and taking learning way beyond the classroom. There are thousands of education apps, books and courses, to make lessons come to life like never before. The iPad has software designed exclusively for educators, to manage the classroom and collaborate with students in new ways.
Shared iPad
This provides a personalised learning experience using shared devices, even when a 1:1 student-to-iPad ratio isn’t possible. After students log in, their homework, apps and assignments appear exactly as they left them, regardless of which iPad they last used.
Apps
iPad comes with iMovie, GarageBand, Pages, Numbers, Keynote & Freeform - a powerful suite of free creativity and productivity apps to inspire lessons and learning experiences. The App Store offers unlimited potential with over 200,000 educational apps just for iPad.
Classroom App
This is a powerful free iPad app that helps teachers guide learning, share work and manage student devices. It is easy to set up on the teacher’s iPad with the help of MDM.
iPadOS
iPadOS is the intuitive, advanced, intelligent and secure mobile operating system designed for iPad that also comes with great features for education that work seamlessly together.
Books
Books is full of interactive materials to support almost any subject. An engaging experience is offered to students by the Multi-Touch magic of Books. Easily create your own books for iPad – with rich graphics, movies, photo galleries, Keynote animations, 3D objects and more with the Pages app.
Coding
Coding unlocks creativity, develops problem-solving skills and prepares students for future careers. Swift Playgrounds is for first-time coders, an iPad app that makes getting started fun and interactive. With built-in Learn to Code lessons, use real code to solve puzzles and meet characters that can be controlled with just a tap.
Accessibility
Powerful assistive features are built into iPad to complement vision, hearing, motor skills, learning and literacy to create opportunities for all learners. Conveniently stored together under Accessibility in System Preferences, here are just a couple of them.
Display Accommodations
To help with colour blindness or other vision challenges, iPadOS will let you invert colours, enable greyscale or colour filters can be applied. These settings will apply to everything once set and can be customised to what works for you.
Zoom
Full screen or picture-in-picture, Zoom is a built-in screen magnifier, adjustable between 100 and 1,500% allowing you to see the zoomed area in a separate window.
