Information technology is set to empower young people in the Bicol region with the second Bicol Youth Technology Expo (BYTE) held recently at the Pili Capitol Convention Center in Camarines Sur where Power Mac Center, the premier Apple partner in the Philippines, was the main presenter.
The expo, organized by the Information and Communication Technology Center (ICTC) of the Ateneo de Naga University which partnered with Power Mac Center, brings the technology of the Apple Education Ecosystem to the Bicol academe in a bid to empower teachers, students, and enthusiasts with the latest digital literacy skills through the use of Apple products.
Representatives from Power Mac Center’s Education Business Group acquainted the hundreds in attendance with the workings of iTunes University, iBooks Author, iCloud, and iOS App Development, as well as the production of digital creative content. Teachers were excited to learn how they can access an extensive selection of references from educators worldwide to make learning even more dynamic for students. Since the dawn of the digital age, it has become increasingly important for educators to keep pace with the latest in technology to sustain the attention of students.
“We’re very thankful to ICTC for inviting Power Mac Center to give these seminars,” said Joey Alvarez, Power Mac Center’s Marketing Director. “You see, Apple products are more than just gadgets – they are tools that fuel creativity and provide endless possibilities for everyone, especially the youth. And it has always been our mission to support the academe in cultivating a love for learning.”
