The Right Device for Your School

The Right Device for Your School

With an increasing number of budget-friendly devices on the market, being able to identify and choose the right technology for your school or child can be challenging. To choose the best device, you need to think about how students will use the device in their learning. If your students’ needs a quick, easy and cost-effective way to access the Internet for research or online collaboration, a Chromebook might be a good choice. With the Google Apps for Education suite, Chromebooks allow students and teachers the ability to search the Web and do most basic productivity activities, such as app downloads and screen sharing for enhanced digital learning. Additionally, if your school system is set up to support Chromebooks, teachers can monitor student progress and streamline communications.

There are many budget-friendly Chromebooks on the market today, but how do they compare in performance? The variety of Chromebooks all run the same operating system and might look similar on the outside, but that doesn’t mean that all Chromebooks offer the same performance. The biggest differentiator between Chromebooks boils down to what’s inside. The processor powering a Chromebook matters more than you might think.

 

To find the device that’s right for your classroom go to the K-12 Blueprint and learn more about the advantages of budget-priced Chromebooks powered by Intel.
