Steve Jobs got it right for education. It’s not just about the hardware, it’s truly about that intuitive interactions by users. There are many companies that make transactional technology hardware for educators. Steve Jobs wanted to develop an interactive transformational learning experience, predicated on the philosophy of “think different.” Steve Jobs designed technology to amplify the user’s “thinking and doing” skills. These skills are the main tenants of the Common Core State Standards and 21st Century learning. Steve Jobs created patents for his hardware, but most importantly he created user interaction patents (http://1.usa.gov/19WJQyD). Therefore, technology does not supplant great teaching and learning, technology is designed to inspire “think different” teaching and learning.
In alignment with Steve Jobs’s philosophy, our Digital Professional Learning Network (www.DigitalPLN.com) connects Forward-Thinking educators to intuitive digital tools and learning strategies. Innovation in education is not stored at a centralized state or district agency. Innovation resides in the brilliance of thinkers and doers. Our Digital Professional Learning Network is designed for those Forward-Thinking educators seeking to “think different” and learn together.
