The Cupertino company has influenced the sector thanks to its range of devices tailored to all levels of education, from iPads for young learners to advanced MacBook Pro models employed in university settings for computer science and engineering.
APPLE AND EDUCATION
Apple’s commitment to education is evident through its tailored products and educational programs. Statistics show a strong preference for Apple products among students, particularly in the United States, where 71% of college students preferred the Mac. The MacBook Air, first launched in 2008, exemplifies this trend with over 10 million units sold, owning a 9.6% market share among all Mac models in the same year. The popularity of Apple devices in educational settings can be attributed to their reliability, ease of use, and the ecosystem they offer, fostering a seamless integration of technology and education. iPads, on the other hand, have become key players in early education, transforming traditional learning methods and introducing interactive and engaging ways to stimulate cognitive development in young learners. With applications designed for young children, iPads offer a gateway to the world of letters, numbers, and basic science through fun and interactive games.
These applications are not just games but structured educational tools designed to enhance motor skills, reading ability, and basic arithmetic from an early age. For instance, apps like “Endless Alphabet” and “Toca Boca” provide playful learning experiences that captivate children’s imaginations while educating them. The tactile nature of iPads, combined with colorful and responsive interfaces, makes learning appealing and accessible even on the playground and is transforming how schools teach children the basics.
