Chromebooks
If you’re looking for a computer that’s fast, secure and smart, you’ll find it all in the latest range of Chromebook devices. As schools become increasingly dependent on their IT provision, they need to increase the number of devices for learners, offer ease-of-use and reduce costs.
Chromebooks are powered by the Google Chrome operating system, an enhanced version of the largely popular web browser. With a Chromebook, all of your programs are accessed through the internet (or downloaded for use in offline mode), and all of your data is saved to the cloud, so there is no need for large amounts of hard drive space or RAM.
Devices boot up in seconds, not minutes (when compared to an equivalent Windows device), which maximises teaching time. Chromebooks can integrate with Google and Microsoft platforms and they remain current without the need for lengthy updates. They also keep learners safe without the need for complex anti-virus solutions.
iPads
Learners (especially young ones) quickly understand how to use an iPad because of its intuitive nature. iPads allow learners to express themselves through the amazing apps now available. From the moment learners engage with an iPad, they’re ready to make things happen by tapping, swiping and dragging. They know how to move text, photos and documents around like experts, whether they’re just learning how to spell or plotting trig functions.
Schools have recently been introduced to augmented reality software, which lets teachers and learners combine the digital and the real world via the iPad’s camera to enhance learning. Make a history lesson as vivid as the present by restoring ancient artifacts. Or even peer inside everyday objects to understand how they’re put together. This interactive and engaging element all forms part of the new Apple OS. We can help you to create an Apple platform that allows learners to explore.
