iPad in Education

It's poised to change the learning landscape

An incredibly responsive Multi-Touch screen. A large, high-resolution LED-backlit IPS display. A design that's thin and light enough to take anywhere. iPad isn't just the best device of its kind - it's a whole new kind of device. And it's poised to change the learning landscape.

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.

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 homework, take notes and study for exams. Teachers can give lessons, monitor progress and stay organised. And that's just the beginning.

Apple's iTunes U is home to more than 350,000 free lectures, videos, readings and podcasts from learning institutions all over the world. Universities such as Yale, Stanford, UC Berkeley, Oxford, Cambridge, MIT, Beijing Open University and The University of Tokyo, as well as broadcasters such as PBS, offer free content on iTunes U. Content ranges from lectures and presentations to syllabi and campus maps. Accessing iTunes U is simple. Just tap the iTunes U icon and from there you can browse and download content directly to your iPad.
