Why did program faculty decide on Apple MacBooks?
Members of the EDUCATE Steering Committee carefully examined the options based on the kinds of experiences and learning program faculty were attempting to create and support. No other notebook computer provided the breadth of tools for digital expression and ease of use than did the MacBook. Out of the box, the MacBook provides a powerful operating system and software suite that enables the kinds of learning projects faculty have integrated into their courses and field experiences. In addition, Apple has a long-standing commitment to education, an environmentally sound business plan, and a partnership perspective.
