Intel Philippines has launched its new Classroom Solutions Bundle aimed to provide schools with computing devices and digital content.
The company said the package includes a content microserver, 25 to 40 Intel-powered devices, and a Starter Content Kit containing Intel Education Resources for teachers.
Intel is partnering with Felta, Starmobile, RedFox, Enigma, PCWorx, and Optimus for the packaged solutions.
According to Intel, schools also have the option of selecting which types of devices — whether PC, laptop, tablet or other form factors — and how many of these would be needed based on the size of the classes and how they intend to use the solution.
The content microserver is a centrally-managed content distribution device preloaded with educational content from Intel Skoool, and online Math and Science education resource specially designed for students and teachers, and the British Council.
Intel said when computing devices are connected to the microserver, students can access the preloaded information, as well as educational content loaded and managed personally by their teachers. The system can also be accessed and updated even without internet access.
Carlo Subido, business development manager of Intel Philippines said, ?We’ve always wanted to make the best technology accessible to the next generation, and now, with our partners, we can reach a wider audience than ever before.?
Research proves that technology-aided education is more effective in improving students’ lesson comprehension and retention, and enables them to become more engaged in the classroom.
In response to compelling evidence on the impact of technology in transforming education, Intel works closely with its local partners to design solutions for schools.
