Digital Rattler Initiative
What is the Digital Rattler Initiative?
Florida A&M University has created the Digital Rattler Initiative (DRI) to leverage the power of technology in higher education. DRI programs provide constant and seamless access to affordable digital tools for quality teaching and learning. This includes new and existing campus programs within the Division of Academic Affairs aligned with this mission, starting with our collaboration with Apple to provide iPads to incoming freshmen.
iPad Pickup
As part of the university's 2022-2027 Strategic Plan, incoming freshmen enrolled in the First Year Experience course will receive an iPad kit to enhance their educational experience.
