Apple Pencil 1st Gen, Unleash your creativity with the Apple Pencil. This stylus connects to your iPad Pro or 6th Gen iPad via Bluetooth, giving you the ability to draw, paint, write, and draft with single-pixel accuracy. When in use, the Pencil and iPad Pro work together to determine the Pencil’s position on the screen, the force at which it’s pressed into the display, and the angle at which it is held. This lets you alter the thickness and shading of the mark you’re making in a fluid, natural manner.
The Pencil can be used in a number of apps, including the Mail and Notes apps and a variety of third-party apps. It’s designed for low latency and high precision, with the iPad Pro scanning its signal twice as often as when you use your finger. The iPad Pro can differentiate between fingers and Pencil, and both can be used simultaneously. The system also detects when you rest your hand on the display and ignores those inputs.
The battery lasts for up to 12 hours and is charged by removing the cap and inserting the Lightning connector into the Lightning port on your iPad Pro. A Pencil with a depleted battery can gain up to 30 minutes of usage time with a 15 second charge.

Apple has been part of the ConnectED initiative since 2014, pledging $100 million of teaching and learning solutions to 114 undeserved schools across the country. We’ve donated an iPad to every student, a Mac and iPad to every teacher, and an Apple TV to every classroom. And we’ve implemented a process that provides planning, professional learning, and ongoing guidance so every school can experience the transformational power of technology.
Many Apple ConnectED schools do not have a strong network or a dedicated technology department. So before any products are delivered, Apple Project Engineers conduct a full survey of the school’s existing wireless infrastructure and help install or upgrade a network. To help every teacher become comfortable with new technology, the Apple Education team provides a series of workshops designed specifically for educators. We start by helping them integrate iPad, Mac, and Apple TV into their curriculum and lessons, then show them how to create original and engaging books, presentations, and other learning materials. Compared to the previous year, open leadership roles filled by women globally increased by 10 percentage points overall, and by 8 percentage points in R&D. And in the U.S., open leadership roles filled by people from underrepresented communities increased by 16 percentage points overall, and by 9 percentage points in R&D.
