The fact that teachers and students can write/annotate directly on Keynote and Pages is a huge selling point for my teachers. If they use other applications - they are not able to have this functionality.

My go to response in trying to encourage others to adapt these apps is to showcase the beautiful and creative work that can be done with them. Showcase materials created for students (worksheets/presentations/etc.) and the creative work done by students. Approaching from both angles can be a powerful tool for persuasion.
Thanks for posing this question. I'm following this to learn from everyone's responses.

Great question-I’m interested to see what others suggest. For me, the animation in keynote draws learners in and makes it more professional looking. I would encourage teachers to get comfortable with some basic animation skills and see how learners respond.

Jamie Clark & Lou Cimetta have published a series of books on implementing Pages and Keynote as powerful and practical creation tools. I love sharing these books with teachers! The books are relatively short and provide lesson ideas with step-by-step instructions, examples, and a "Why Do It?" section for each activity/lesson. Teachers could choose one activity from the book that intrigues them and then build from there.

With Keynote and Pages, students can use various forms of media. For example, a student can demonstrate learning with photos, videos, or audio. These features remove barriers for students.
