Hi ,

Welcome to the Tech Learning Collective Newsletter. 🌟Updated links below🌟

 
 
 

Let's explore Maps on Mac and iPad.

There are many apps and features that are available on both Mac and iPad which makes the transition from one to the other seamless and beautiful. Apple Maps is just one example.

 
 
 

Have you ever experimented with Apple Maps Flyover feature? It provides a great way to explore virtual 3D tours of various destinations and iconic landmarks across the globe. Apple Maps includes an extensive collection of locations that support immersive 3D tours plus many more features. Combine with markup, screen recording, Keynote Live or greenscreen in iMovie, maps can be used in many creative ways for teaching and learning.

Check out the ideas below for using Apple Maps on Mac or iPad in the classroom.

TLC Staff Meetings & iPad Creativity Labs

TLC have been out & about facilitating staff meetings & inspiring teachers with iPad Creativity Labs across South East and Central Queensland this week and have had great feedback from participants.  Apple Maps was a great tool to use in planning the events and navigating to the correct locations whilst away! 🙌🏻

“Thank you again for an engaging and action filled PD. It's by far the best PD I've been to.  I was thinking of how to support ICP students but the ideas you have given me can be used for the whole class and benefit everyone. It was wonderful and has given us inspiration to make the curriculum hands on and fun.”  Michelle
