Main Agenda: Made for Learning: Apple in Higher Education

Continuing our discussions on mobile learning, this presentation will show how Apple products make learning more engaging and accessible than ever. As was discussed last month, today's students are learning in more places than just the classroom and educators are finding - and must find - new and more dynamic ways to reach them anytime, anywhere.

At this hands-on event, you'll see for yourself how Mac, iPod, iPad, and iPhone make collaboration, content creation, and distribution easier than ever before. You'll also learn how Apple products can be used by students to enhance their learning experiences in school, as well as their professional careers. This is a special presentation just for SLATE. Please note the earlier starting time.
