Over 3 days, teachers will have the opportunity to explore a variety of apps for students in the early years to create, including music, video, photography and drawings. The application of these apps will include STEM, literacy and numeracy contexts. Teachers will also explore Apple Classroom to manage student devices and access, and Apple Teacher to further their own professional learning. Guest speakers will also share their experiences and learning from the classroom. Participants will be encouraged to plan and implement a learning experience for students between each workshop.

We also ask that for any school participating in the above project, please ensure someone from the school also attends the iPad readiness Workshop to ensure your school iPads are ready to go when the project begins. [Register here]
