Surf's up!? Join the Education Revolution? Anne Muldowney ...

Pop up *? Tablet Learning Is? Reality!

Yes indeed, Education tends to be an institution rooted in tradition, but that?s not the case when it comes to tablets devices in the classroom.? Tim Cook, Apple CEO, said, ?the adoption of the iPad in education is something I?ve never seen before in any technology. In fact, during its quarterly earnings call in July, Apple announced that it sold 1M iPads to high schools and colleges, doubling its sales to schools during the same quarter a year ago.

My friend Travis Allen, Age 22 and Founder of the iSchool Initiative, has been riding this wave for four years already.? He is one of the pioneers of the ?education revolution?. I?m truly inspired by this young talent!? He is passionate about making the learning transition a success for both educators and students.? His slice of the pie is professional development for the institution of Education. He travels from school district to school district across the country engaging School leadership, educators and students? and he is waking up America to the need to make the 21st century classroom a reality.? He is a catalyst of hope for the education revolution.

Travis once said, ?My generation believes that anything is possible. Technology has already revolutionized the way we shop, socialize and play, why not improve the way we learn??

?Today?s students? have changed radically.? ?Today?s students? are no longer the people our educational system was designed to teach.? Today?s ?digital natives? have been exposed to more technology than was ever thought possible.? Think about this fact for a second:? The graduating class of 2016 will have never had the need to reference an encyclopedia in the library?hmm.

I?m proud that Movero has joined the Education Revolution as well.? Our full-service mobile management offerings that include, security, 24/7 help-desk support, and device kitting is available to K-12 and higher ed.
