The Apple Special Needs Briefing for K-12 gives education leaders the opportunity to experience the many features built into Mac, iPod, and iPad devices that accommodate special needs students.
Every Mac comes equipped with dozens of assistive technologies, and now with the development of universal access features for iPod, iPhone, and iPad, Apple is taking these technologies - and the opportunities for all learners to succeed - to a new level. Hear from outstanding educators who use Apple technology to engage students, enhance their learning, and inspire them to achieve their best regardless of physical or learning disability. See the ease of use and quick customization for individual needs and learning styles. Explore how you can stretch your dollars and accommodate the needs of more students.
Who should attend:
• Administrators, Special Needs Personnel, Technology Directors and IDEA Coordinators.
The briefing begins at 8:30 am and will end at 2:30 pm. A continental breakfast and lunch will be provided. Attendance is first come, first served.
