Creativity and innovation are critical skills in the modern workplace, which makes them critical skills to teach today’s students. Apple offers comprehensive lab solutions for your school or university that will creatively engage students and motivate them to take an interest in their own learning.
If you’re looking for a versatile, cross-curriculum solution for your school or university, look no further than the iMac. The all-in-one efficiency of the iMac makes it the computer of choice for labs that need to cater to a wide variety of subjects, from English to science to maths and beyond. Its ultrathin design eliminates clutter, and its ultra-powerful processor delivers serious speed.
More and more schools are choosing the Mac platform for programming and development classes because of its unique ability to run Mac, PC and UNIX platforms with an open source base. macOS provides a powerful and feature-rich developer environment that makes it easy to create custom applications and scripts. The iMac can power most computer science labs with ease. Add some Mac Pro workstations for more advanced calculations, and you’ll have a computer science lab with enough muscle to meet even the most complex computing demands.
Preparing students for careers in scientific research, graphic design and film editing and production requires a computer that can handle extremely high-powered tasks. The Mac Pro is the perfect machine for the job. It runs graphics-intensive applications at blazingly fast speeds. And thanks to the strong UNIX base of macOS, the Mac Pro can run a wide range of commercial and open source scientific applications. For programs that focus on creativity, your career technology lab can come with the software the pros use – like Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro and Aperture – built right in.
In response to the extraordinary growth of the mobile apps industry, more and more colleges are using the Mac to teach state-of-the-art mobile app development on campus. Together with the free iPhone SDK download, the Mac has everything you need to create world-class applications. The tools in Xcode are designed to work smoothly with the Cocoa frameworks, so creating Mac or iPhone applications is simple, yet incredibly powerful, just like using your Mac. And with Develop with Swift Program, you can introduce a curriculum for this emerging field of study.
Labs are a cost-effective and efficient way to ensure students have access to a computer with the apps they need to be successful, saving students the cost of purchasing computer hardware and software. And, IT now has options when creating and maximizing their Mac labs.
