Apple has launched free classroom resources for students and teachers to embrace creative learning during lessons, in celebration of World Teacher’s Day.
“We’re inspired by the incredible work coming out of classrooms and communities across the globe,” said Apple’s vice president of Education and Enterprise Marketing Susan Prescott. “[Apple’s] new Creative Activities for early learners and students make learning easy and fun, and most importantly, give educators quick tools to engage learners of all ages.”
As part of the new “Everyone Can Create” resources for teachers, a collection of interactive lesson ideas known as “Creative Activities” are now available that can help educators liven up their learning curriculum and encourage creative thinking. Split into two categories, Creative Activities for Early Learners (ages 4 to 8) and Creative Activities for Students (ages 8 and up), the tools help teachers engage students without adding to their workload.
Now available in the Apple Education Community, the new Creative Activities include:
- Drawing: Reveal a Constellation
- Photo: Create a Sticker Collage
- Video: See More in Slo-Mo
- Music: Lay Down a Beat
The company is also expanding Apple Learning Coach, a free learning program that coaches teachers on how to get the most out of their products. More than 100,000 teachers have benefitted from this program to date, impacting 2.4 million students.
Additionally, Apple has also strengthened its grant programs, adding further support to almost 40 new education partners across Canada, Mexico, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States within the last year.
