Using iPad changes the way teachers teach and students learn

Students, educators, and institutions around the world are using iPad to inspire creativity and hands-on learning that makes learning more powerful. Since Apple launched iPad in 2010, millions have made their way into education. They continue to show significant promise in teaching and learning, often with impressive results. The examples in this document highlight the amazing success stories institutions worldwide are self-reporting in the areas below across K–12 and higher education:

• Improvement in academic performance
• Increase in engagement and motivation
• Rise in cost savings and resource efficiency
• Integrated focus on content quality and design 

This document highlights the results or trends institutions using Apple products have observed, along with studies that demonstrate the positive impact iPad is having on instruction in the classroom. The data shown in this document is self-reported by the institution—Apple was not involved in the gathering or analysis of the data reported, nor has any knowledge of the methodology used.

Academic Performance

Schools report that academic performance—as measured by standardized test scores and other key student outcomes—is improving with iPad use. A number of K–12 schools, districts, and higher education institutions have reported substantial gains when comparing current student test scores with prior year test scores, pre-and post-test measures, and increases in student performance on state and national assessments.

Engagement and Motivation

From preschool to college, reports from institutions overwhelmingly indicate that students using iPad find that it increases their engagement in learning and makes them feel more motivated to learn. Other positive outcomes include a decrease in discipline problems and dropout rates.

Resource Efficiencies

It has become more important than ever for districts and schools to manage their financial obligations in order to provide great educational experiences on a limited budget. iPad implementation gives schools the opportunity to create efficiencies and explore cost savings, such as reductions in computer lab maintenance, consumables and textbooks, hardware peripherals, print services, and more.

Content Quality and Design

Quality content for iPad and apps for iPad in education lead to higher achievement. Research shows the importance of developing features that enhance learning and engage young students, while not distracting from the educational content. Several studies have focused on specific content effectiveness of third-party apps, underscoring that designing quality content matters.
