President Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),, Tim Cook, was met with small-scale protests at a school in Idaho, which he visited yesterday with Ivanka Trump, Donald Trump's daughter. Although you might think that it is the fault of the daughter of the US president, well, in reality we are talking about teachers who protested because of the inclusion of iPad tablets in the learning process.
The teachers are angry that the iPad tablets, which the school they work at received 2 years ago, do not help the students to learn more easily, but actually only confuse them more in this process. The teachers say that they were asked to let the students learn on their own using Apple's iPad tablets, but this is not possible, because those children cannot learn the subject by themselves.
The President of Apple Met with PROTESTS in the USA
Not all teachers are of the same opinion, some saying that tablets are actually very useful for children, and actually help them learn to read more easily, so there are not only negative parts. Tim Cook and Ivanka Trump spent an hour in that school and tested a game created by the students there using iPad tablets provided by Apple.
There's no teaching involved with (the iPads) because the teachers have been asked to be hands-off and let the kids learn on their own. They're basically told to teach themselves and they can't do that, which is why our (math scores) are so low.
Apple offered iPad tablets to 114 schools in an American county where there are no funds to equip the schools with such devices, something that also happened in other American states. Apple claims that education can be improved with the help of technology, and of course not everyone is convinced of this, so it is normal to have contradictory opinions.
