Why Apple Teacher?
The program is constantly evolving. Since the launch last summer, Apple already added badges for teaching coding with Swift Playgrounds.
Join a growing community of Apple Teachers. Follow #appleteacher on Twitter to connect with other like-minded educators.
The resources are fantastic. It’s not just about the badges. There are some fantastic resources; stories of technology being used in the classroom, starter guides for the most often used apps, teacher-created iBooks, and much, much, more.
Model for your students. We strive to teach our students to become life-long learners. Be proud of the fact that you are constantly learning to become a better educator.
Use the badge! After becoming an Apple Teacher you get a great little badge/graphic that you can plaster on your classroom door, blog, or website.The Academy Boot Camp
