Moore College of Art & Design introduced the iPad initiative as part of the new Foundation curriculum beginning in Fall 2012. Each new student was given a free Apple® iPad®. Pre-populated apps selected to support the visual art and design education at Moore are loaded and ready for students to use in their classes.

“Faculty at Moore are committed to educating students for contemporary careers in art and design,” says Academic Dean Dona Lantz. “The iPad is a pivotal learning tool in the new Foundation curriculum where the integration of digital media and tools are taught and used in tandem with traditional drawing and design media.”

". . . the iPad initiative at Moore . . . brings the late Steve Jobs' wish to revolutionize education to fruition."
