APPLE'S COMMON CORE ALIGNED APPS FOR IPAD

APPLE SHOWCASES EDUCATION APPS

‘ALIGNED TO COMMON CORE STANDARDS’

2+2=5 now streamlined for iPad

EXCERPT:

A document posted to the education section of Apple’s website reveals the company’s close ties to the controversial Common Core learning standard.

Entitled “Curriculum, Assessment and Teaching Tools for iPad,” the document claims to offer a comprehensive list of “exemplary” apps and iBooks focused on English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies.

Despite the growing backlash against Common Core among parents and educators, the increasing number of schools obtaining iPads through federal grants will likely keep Apple from disassociating itself from the curriculum.
