Apple's Free 'Everyone Can Create' Music, Drawing, Photos, and Video Guides Now Available on Apple Books

Apple today announced that its Everyone Can Create curriculum is now available in English on Apple Books for Mac, iPad, and iPhone. Apple says additional languages will be available by the end of 2018.


Everyone Can Create is designed to allow teachers to easily incorporate creativity into their existing lesson plans in any subject, including language arts, math, science, history, social studies, and coding. The series of guides teach students to develop ideas through drawing, music, video, and photos on iPad.

Apple's marketing chief Phil Schiller:
We believe Apple technology can help unleash every child's creative genius. Working closely with teachers, we have built the Everyone Can Create curriculum to help bring creative expression and the arts into the classroom, and to help students stay engaged through creativity and ultimately be more successful.
Apple says that, since releasing a preview of Everyone Can Create in March, more than 350 schools around the world have adopted the curriculum.

Apple Stores are also using Everyone Can Create in their Teacher Tuesday sessions. 504 stores in 24 countries have already taught over 5,000 hands-on Teacher Tuesday sessions on topics including coding and app design, video and music creation, and creative visual presentations, according to Apple.

Everyone Can Create includes four student guides for drawing, music, video, and photos, available for free in Apple Books. A companion teacher guide helps bring these projects to life, with 300 lesson ideas across media, projects, and subjects.

Good, I'll take a look at it, BUT how about a guide or a manual to learn how to create on a Mac with, say, GarageBand, iMovie, or even better, Logic Pro X and Final Cut Pro X?

Those tutorials would be awesome for those like me who want to get into content creation, and use a Mac rather than an iPad.

I'm open to suggestions.


There are already guides on how to use GarageBand, iMovie, Logic Pro X, and Final Cut Pro, etc on for the Mac. You just need to search the Book Store on Apple Books.

Seems like a smart way to hook them to Apple devices ;)

Nice idea, but if they really want to succeed in the classroom they need to really change their pricing model and I’m not talking about a mere $30 education discount.

Schools are always short on cash which explains the popularity of chrome books.

Speaking generally one has nearly unlimited opportunity to create and consume with a smart device. I don’t understand people who say they’re “bored” with their phone. Small mind syndrome.
