MANILA, Philippines - Intel Philippines, with partners Felta, Starmobile, RedFox, Enigma, PCWorx and Optimus, recently launched its new Classroom Solutions Bundle to provide schools with computing devices and digital content that will transform the country’s classrooms into interactive learning environments.
Each package includes a content microserver, 25 to 40 Intel-powered devices, and a starter content kit containing Intel education resources for teachers. Schools have the option of selecting the types of devices — whether PC, laptop, tablet or other form factors — and how many they would need based on class size 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.
Called the Intel NUC — or next-unit of computing — this fully scalable microserver boasts usage flexibility, fast connectivity, and amazing processing power in a size just slightly bigger than a hard drive.
Students can access the preloaded information as well as educational content loaded and managed by teachers. The system can also be accessed and updated even without internet access.
“We are excited to bring this new Classroom Solutions Bundle throughout the country,” said Carlo Subido, business development manager of Intel Philippines.
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.
