Episode 42 of the EdTech TV Podcast takes a look at the Apple Teacher Program and waves farewell to Evernote after they chose to dismiss their free users.

Apple Teachers

Apple launched both the Everyone Can Code Initiative and the Apple Teacher Program. Both were mostly overlooked by the news of shiny new iPhones that don’t have headphone jacks, but these are great opportunities for teachers to explore.

• Everyone Can Code
• Apple Teacher Program

Both are great opportunities for professional development – and they’re the magic price: FREE!

Goodbye Evernote

With the rising prices and the basic dismissal of their free users, it’s time to say goodbye to Evernote. Yes, it’s true I loved you once, but you betrayed me. It’s not me, it’s you.

The Verge: Evernote raises prices of its paid plans, limits device sharing on free tier
