And educators can create and review assignments and assess student progress just as easily, freeing them up to concentrate on the business of learning. Students will be free to research, create, collaborate and share - anywhere, and at any time. With free at-home access to the same tools students use at school, classroom assignments will no longer be confined to the classroom. Quite simply, the integration of Office 365 into every student’s daily schoolwork prepares them for future success by developing both the hard and soft skills they’ll need as they enter college and the workplace.įor educators – like my brother, who teaches history at the Bronx’s largest public high school - the Office 365 ProPlus benefit means they can expect more from their students. What’s the impact of this bold move? In the city that is a world leader in so many areas, every student will gain proficiency in what IDC called the number-three most in-demand skills valued for employers. Students and teachers can also download Office to 5 additional mobile devices (smartphones or tablets). In collaboration with the City Council, the New York City Department of Education is making the Office 365 ProPlus benefit available to all teachers and students – at no cost – providing them with up to five downloads of the latest versions of Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Outlook, Access and Publisher, along with anywhere, anytime access to OneDrive cloud storage. Today, 1.1 million students in the New York City Public Schools are taking a significant step forward in their educations and will now have free access to the productivity powerhouse that is Office 365. As a native New Yorker, I take special pride in the announcement made today by City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito during her State of the City address.
