This iPad accessibility training is being provided by Apple and will be in conjunction with IU7. The use of technology should be intentional and natural for all students. It should also be age appropriate and meet the ability of each student. Given the range of learning styles and abilities of students today, educators need technology and resources to accommodate and personalize learning. Apple builds accessibility features into every product, so everyone can use them in ways that work best for them. Join us to discuss how Apple allows all students and teachers to explore, communicate, and create.
NOTE: This training will be held at Penn Trafford Administration Building, 1100 Randall Court, Export, PA 15632. (Registration link coming soon!)
