Apple Teacher with Swift PlaygroundsOur school is 1-to1 with iPads for all students and teachers. Additionally, all teachers have a MacBook Air. I have always felt it important to learn how to maximize the tools I have at my disposal. When the Apple Teacher program came out, I completed it right away. I wanted to learn how to better use my iPad and Mac for student learning.
I use coding all the time in my class and was super excited when Swift Playgrounds came out. Not long after the launch of Apple Teacher, came the roll out of the Apple Teacher certificate for Swift Playgrounds. I jumped at the chance right away. Apple Teacher is a free professional learning program designed to support and celebrate educators using Apple products for teaching and learning. As an educator you can build skills on iPad and Mac that directly apply to activities with your students, earn recognition for the new things you learn, and be rewarded for the great work you do every day.
