Wie wir unser Zuhause verlassen können, ohne unser Haus zu verlassen…

Stellen Sie sich vor Sie können in die Vergangenheit reisen, und auf den Spuren historischer Persönlichkeiten wandeln, Auge in Auge mit längst ausge­storbenen Dino­sauriern stehen oder in den brodelnden Krater eines Vulkans blicken. Kein Problem mit Virtual Reality (kurz: VR). Es  erlaubt uns Lehrern, die Schülerinnen…

Greetings and thank you for reading. During the break I thought about the future and education. With limited resources, funding, increased threats to safety, and the fiscal challenges of creating safe, inclusive, immersive, inspiring, etc. learning spaces for all students are in crisis. One of the ways I see moving forward is to design really great learning environments that can be accessed anywhere, anytime, by anyone. Ok so that is the base philosophy I will not go further other than to say that the classroom is changing and the tools with it. Case in point my previous blog shared an application geared for introducing children to coding. In my research on coding I was impressed with the investment at Apple around coding and education. Apple has put smart fun resources together in a game like format to not only teach the code but give some real world applications and implications of the code kids can create in the language swift. Note this makes sense for a School District that already has investment in the Apple ecosystem e.g. iPads etc. I found the education site to be a one stop shop full of tools and ideas that can be easily integrated into the classroom. No worries though this will be my only Apple centric blog post, haha but its worth a look at the Education suite if your school has Apple hardware already, and of all of theses resources are all free. Another aspect is that these materials have accessibility support for blind and deaf learners as well. 

If you have access to a iPad the Swift Playgrounds app is free and quite a lot of fun, the real magic of learning to code is what you can do with it! There are a variety of cool robots and devices that put the code in to real world actions. Even if your school does not have budget for extra devices coding is relatively low cost and can be done on just about any connected device.

One more thing...there are a variety of classroom management tools out there and some really good ones have been featured in this classes blogs...as part of the education resources Apple provides the school work app is their version of classroom management and integrates nicely if your school already has Apple ecosystem.

Apple went on a major shopping spree last year, acquiring a handful of startups from different fields -- depth-sensing cameras, speech technology and more. But it doesn't look like the company's had enough. As Bloomberg reports, Apple has purchased L...
