New York- Today Apple held an even where they talked about a few new pushes they are making to impact the educational field. Lets take a look into them.

iBooks 2: Textbooks on your iPad

Apple's first major announcement today was for an update to their e-reading app. iBooks 2 has a new textbooks feature for students.
