    Image result for end of average
  • Ask your self: Why does you school exist...not what
  • Youth now are Digital native not digital immigrant
  • Tech for students is an environment, not extra tools, as they were born into it. Tech is only technology to those who were born before it.
  • iPhone - 2007, iPad 2010
  • Students now expect "Feedback in real time"
  • Apple new vision in 2008 saw classes as relevant, creative, collaborative and challenging 
  • Challenged based Learning - like project but students pick the challenge/question 
  • Book - The end of average, how to succeed - Todd Rose
  • Company called eSpark - unpacked every education app - https://www.esparklearning.com/
  • apple.com/nz/education/everyone-can-code - coding is the next stage.
  • Look at Swift application - real coding - https://developer.apple.com/swift/
  • 5 000 000 jobs going in USA cause they can’t find anyone that codes
