Apple has collaborated with Common Sense Media to develop a series of new curriculum and training programs aimed at helping educators teach responsible use of AI in their classrooms. These free resources are designed to equip thousands of teachers and their students around the world with the skills to use AI safely and effectively.
The most recent guide, Teachers’ Essential Guide to STEM with Apple Intelligence, explores how Apple Intelligence can support inquiry-based STEM instruction while keeping educators’ professional judgment at the center.
Using the 5E Model as its organizing framework, this guide walks through each stage of the inquiry process, from sparking curiosity to evaluating understanding, and where Apple Intelligence tools might help along the way. The companion workbook helps teachers work through a real classroom STEM case study.
Explore the first two guides, Teachers‘ Essential Guide to AI Fundamentals with Apple, which provides a values-based framework for helping educators evaluate which AI tools are appropriate and beneficial for classroom use, and Teachers’ Essential Guide to Creativity with Apple Intelligence, which focuses on how educators can leverage AI to amplify their creative vision while maintaining their unique voice and professional judgment.
