Apple iOS upgrade for education in a major way ,

Apple has always tried to position the iPad as a key tool in the classroom, but he never did anything many to adapt the device - or its software - for educational environments. Now that will change: Apple unveiled a preview of the next major iOS update today, featuring a range of new features specific to the class. Perhaps the most notable is the multi-user support. School staff will be able to set up profiles for each child in a classroom, and these profiles will be accessible from any iPad class.

Support multi-user does not come to everyone

It's time for Apple to launch to multiple user accounts on a single iPad. Although this update will not go completely - the feature will only be available in schools - this means that the multi-user support has been built, at least to some extent, which may allow Apple to roll all iPads in the near future.

Apple added this feature for classrooms, as it seems to have just come to the realization that the school may not be able to afford an iPad for each student. This way, students should be able to have a similar experience, connect to a personal account with an application access to education and other materials they are supposed to be using. To ensure that an individual profile does not take too much storage, the iPad will be re-download more content like a student begins to use.

Other new features in this upcoming update is the ability for school staff to see an overview of what students are doing. A teacher, for example, can see what app each student in their class uses; they can also press the link to see what the student has done on their screen. In addition, teachers will be able to launch applications, websites and specific pages, even in a book about an entire class iPad "both. They could also lock students only using this application. Apple is building a website where schools will be able to manage all accounts for students and staff and to purchase and distribute applications and books.

The iPad has to deal with Chromebooks in the classroom

iOS These changes suggest that Apple is beginning to take education more seriously.

The new features of the class will arrive as part of iOS 9.3, which is available today in beta and will likely go public in the aisles months. Besides these characteristics of education, Apple announces new features in iOS 9.3 that will arrive for everyone, including a feature that mimics F.lux, the ability to lock your notes, and improvements to Apple and News Application of Health.
