Yesterday we lost an important figure in the technology community. I think it is pertinent to comment on the loss of Steve Jobs and how his brilliant legacy will live on in the future. His work and innovations with Apple have been implemented in a variety of classrooms and have changed the face of education. (In districts such as Edison, they are incorporating the use of iPads in the classroom.) These devices are changing the way that students think and teachers approach knowledge. Students can become engaged using applications to learn because of their easy to use interfaces and aspects that incorporate games into learning. Steve Jobs has revolutionalized many industries including education and his legacy will live on forever.
