When producing digital projects with iLife, students are empowered to be innovative and creative while at the same time building crucial communication, collaboration, critical thinking, problem solving, and decision making skills.

With iLife, students can express themselves with images, movies, music, spoken word, and text. iLife lets students learn in the multisensory mode they need to process information and express themselves, using the tools of their generation.

Easy-to-use tools keep the focus on learning

The iLife software is unmatched in its combination of ease of use and powerful features. The applications are designed to work together seamlessly, and share many interface elements, so students can quickly move between applications after learning just one.

“The result of this iLife project was far better than a paper or oral presentation. Students worked harder, were more creative, and spent more time and effort on this project than anything they had done the whole year.”
