Spring Grove Area School District
I was tasked with piloting the Apple Classroom application for the Spring Grove Area School District. I worked closely with the Instructional Technology Specialist and the Technology Support Specialist to update the students' iPads to iOS 11.3 and configured the Apple Classroom application for use in an instructional setting. Currently, I am monitoring the effectiveness of the application and how it works with other features on the iPad to ensure proper use prior to a widespread initiative within the district. I will also be tasked with determining whether the use of Apple Classroom is appropriate and effective to be used by other educators.
