Samsung Tablet empowers VijayKiran Educational Trust to enable digital education
Feb 18. 2021Challenges
- VijayKiran Educational Trust was looking for a competitive digital partner to help them take their classes online by providing a better utility to their teachers
- Installation and updation of Unified Education Management platform and other third-party apps from a remote location was a challenge for the educational trust
- Teachers had to prepare their teaching material on a piece of paper and then copy it to the tablet for online class, and there was no way to annotate or draw on the tablet while teaching students online
Solution
- Galaxy Tab S6 Lite was given to all teachers to conduct online classes during the pandemic
- Knox Configure was used to download and upload apps and content right from the time these tablets were turned on for the first time
- Using S Pen, teachers could write and annotate on the screen while using third-party apps
- Teachers could also prepare their teaching material directly on to the tablet using the S Pen
Result
- All teachers used a uniform infrastructure instead of using personal devices, which resulted in better collaboration among teachers, management, and studentsbetter collaboration with teachers, management, and students
- Thus, Knox Configure ensured that all tablets could be updated remotely, and all teachers used the latest version of the apps
- Annotations through S Pen made it easy for teachers to explain complicated concepts - like they used to do on the blackboard in the classroom
- S Pen also helped teachers to move from pen and paper environment to a completely digital environment while preparing their teaching material
