Apple Learning Interchange

1. Apple and connected

1.1. We believe that education is a fundamental human right for all.

1.2. We believe that the young minds and young innovators of tomorrow should have every opportunity to realize their potential through today’s powerful learning tools. It’s important to us that our contribution to ConnectED makes a difference for students and communities who need it the most. We’ve chosen to provide our support to schools where at least 96 percent of the students are eligible for the free or reduced-price lunch program. Despite their economic challenges, these schools share a vision of what their students’ lives would be like with Apple technology.

2. Providing students and teachers with powerful technology.

2.1. Technology paired with passionate and well-supported teachers enables deeper creativity and learning. That’s why every student at our ConnectED schools will receive an iPad, allowing students to connect with topics and express themselves like never before. Every teacher and administrator will receive an iPad and a Mac to help support and inspire their students. And every ConnectED classroom will have an Apple TV to help students immerse themselves in the educational content they discover and the work they create.

3. A commitment that goes beyond products.

3.1. The support we’re providing our ConnectED schools doesn’t end at an iPad, Mac, or Apple TV. We want to make sure that they have all the tools they need to succeed. So we’re drawing on the deep pool of knowledge and expertise from Apple employees and partners to help schools get the most out of their technology and achieve their educational goals.

4. A complete solution

5. A dedicated team

5.1. We’ve identified key partners who share our vision for transforming education with technology. In collaboration with leading education content providers, we’re delivering tailored curriculum solutions at no cost to the schools. We’re also working with Wi-Fi providers and cellular carriers to ensure that every school can access that content reliably.

6. An Apple Education team will be assigned to support each ConnectED school, working closely with leadership to make sure that each school’s technical and educational needs are considered and their strategies are executed successfully. A professional development specialist will also help ensure that teachers are prepared to integrate technology into their curriculum.
