Customer Reviews
Great resource.
This is an amazing resource for learning and education! However the one thing that I wish could happen is that for a small fee to cover the extra work required of a professor, so that I could do a Harvard course on history or a Yale seminar on Autism and receive transferable credit from that University. When that happens is when apple will have truly revolutionized the education industry. No longer will teacher get by on just tenure, but rather if they can do their jobs of engaging students and increasing the will to learn. I would love to say that I got an A in a Harvard course in history without leaving my room and then taking that and recieving credit at my current university for wanting to seek further knowledge.
Thank you Apple for taking a stand on education and trying to fix a broken system that is more concerned about the bottom dollar then what they are actually teaching.
Thank you Apple
Thank you for revolutionizing our lives.. This is going to make learning so much more interactive and dare I say fun... You rock Apple!
So amazing.
I just hope that my college picks up on this.
