With iPad sales to schools slumping (and overall sales declining), these new features could be just what the company needs to regain its foothold in the classroom. As Apple announces the latest recent years four update, it is also releasing 9 new features for iOS device users in the classroom, designed to “keep students on tasks and allow administrators more ease when managing Apple IDs”. The features include: “Intelligent caching” to allow students who share Apple to log-on and reach the same screen they were using when they were last signed in; a “classroom app” which allows teachers more specific and remote control over students iPads and laptops; new ways to create and manage Apple IDs; and an “ Apple School Manager” described as “a central place for administrators to conduct Apple iPad deployment from web browsers on any US or PC.”
