Scarsdale Adult School Steps Up Apple-Related 'i World' Class Offerings

To keep up with demand, the Scarsdale Adult School this semester will offer the most ”i world” related courses in its history, the school announced this week.

The classes are mostly centered around Apple’s iOS and related technologies, and they follow the company’s recent release of the new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.

Below is a press release from the school detailing the offerings:

SAS is offering more courses this semester than ever before on the “i” World. All are taught by Donald Gambino, a computer artist, consultant, educator, and former chair of the Department of Computer Arts at the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan.

Next Tuesday, September 30, Gambino spends the afternoon in the iCloud: Keep Your Documents Up to Date on All Devices and, in the evening, he rolls out his newest course on iOS 8 Fundamentals, the operating system that Apple just released a few days ago.

On Wednesday, October 1, it will be time to say Goodbye Digital Cameras . . . Hello iPhone!, evening session, with the daytime class set for Tuesday, November 18. Then on Tuesday, October 14, brush up on iPad Fundamentals, a class designed for the mobile device novice.

Later next month, Gambino enables students with iCan: Accessibility/Assistive Technology Features for iPhone, iPad, Mac, a class on technologies for hearing, seeing, reading, touching, mousing, and using voice commands for common digital tasks. Then he reprises two successful classes from last semester, iAsk: Siri Fundamentals and iPad for Organization: Coordinate Your Digital Life with iCal, Contacts, and Mail.
