Apple Schoolwork App to Personalize Learning

Apple announced Tuesday a new 9.7-inch iPad with support for Apple Pencil and programs designed to spark student creativity.

Everyone Can Create is a new, free curriculum that makes it fun and easy for teachers to integrate drawing, music, filmmaking or photography into their existing lesson plans for any subject.

The new curriculum joins Apple’s Everyone Can Code initiative as one-of-a-kind programs for teachers that keep students excited and engaged.

Everyone Can Create is designed to take advantage of the new 9.7-inch iPad and Apple Pencil, so teachers and students can be even more creative.

The new iPad starts at $299 for schools, featuring a large Retina display, the A10 Fusion chip, enhanced cameras and advanced sensors with all-day battery life.

iPad also gives teachers and students access to free, powerful, built-in apps like Pages, Numbers, Keynote, GarageBand, Clips and iMovie, along with the more than 1.3 million apps in total built for iPad in the App Store.

Apple also announced Schoolwork, a new app that helps teachers create assignments, see student progress and tap into the power of apps in the classroom.

Schoolwork builds on Apple’s Classroom app, which is used in schools to help integrate iPad into the classroom. Schoolwork and Classroom are designed to help teachers and administrators get the most out of integrating Apple technology into schools.
