Untuk itulah dalam waktu dekat ini, Apple akan mengupayakan agar para Siswa tidak lagi memerlukan Apple ID dalam menggunakan aplikasi-aplikasi yang khususnya berhubungan dengan pendidikan. Dan untuk merealisasikan rencana tersebut, pihak Apple telah mengatakan dalam email mereka ke salah satu mitra yang bernaung dalam bidang pendidikan, bahwa Apple akan tetap merencanakan dan mengembangkan iPad sebagai sara dalam proses belajar untuk setiap para siswa, baik secara perorangan maupun kelompok dan tentunya para siswa ini nantinya tidak lagi memerlukan ID
Berikut email yang dikirim ke mitra pendidikan Apple yang dilansir 9TO5MAC
In iPad one-to-one environments, schools are seeing more engaged students, better attendance, and higher test results. You can see this happening in districts and schools like Prince George’s County, and Essa Academy.
We understand that some schools are not able to give every student an iPad and are sharing devices across classes and students. We want to make learning with a shared iPad a great experience for these students as well as their teachers and administrators. We are already at work on significant changes to App distribution, Apple ID, and Apple Deployment Programs that we are planning to deliver next year to make using iPad in the classroom even better.
To simplify large deployments, including one-to-one and shared use, we want to make app distribution even easier. Today, Apple IDs are required in order to deliver apps and books to students. We are working to change this in the fall by allowing schools to assign and distribute apps to a device without an Apple ID. As currently planned, this will greatly reduce the number of steps needed to setup a device.
This change should eliminate the need to create generic Apple IDs solely for the purposes of getting content onto iPad. Schools will also have the option to prevent students from making personal purchases without approval.
We realize the complexity of obtaining parental consent for Apple ID for students under 13 can be a challenge, especially in large districts. We are working to change the Apple ID for Students program in 2016 – during the upcoming school year. With these planned changes schools will have the ability to create and manage Apple IDs on behalf of students that can be configured to access iCloud. It will also allow system administrators to reset student passwords. And, the new approach will still meet COPPA requirements.
We are improving the Apple Deployment Programs by unifying individual services into one program, simplifying the administrator experience. This will make it far easier to enroll, manage, and support a large deployment—and reduce many of the steps schools have to go through to get setup.
Today iPad is engaging students in their learning in ways we couldn’t have imagined. Alongside inspiring leaders, innovative teachers and engaged communities, we believe iPad is the best device for any student, grade and level. We will work to make it easy to get iPads into the hands of all students and teachers. The feedback we receive helps guide what we need to do to get there.
Dengan adanya Apple ID untuk siswa di iPad akan memungkinkan pendidik untuk membuat ID siswa untuk memungkinkan akses ke iCloud dan serta bagian menyatukan program untuk meningkatkan pengalaman para siswa mereka. Jadi, jika rencana Apple ini terealisasi maka dukungan guru dan orang tua siswa juga tetap diperlukan, khususnya dalam menjaga mereka selama proses belajar dan penggunaan beberapa aplikasi didalam iPad
