Moving towards a Digital Era
Amalshan Gunerathne
The time is ripe to bid adieu to the tedious learning methods that we
employ. As the world evolving in to the digital age, using obsolete
methods to feed students with study content remains a mockery. Now is
the time to move in to the era of digital note-books. With the hope of
spurring the change, Dell INC has come up with a novel solution to take
students to the digital era.
Dell’s new Connected Classroom Solution hopes to provide schools and
teachers with the necessary technology and understanding that are needed
to transform the traditional classroom in to an environment in which
students can be nurtured and prepared for life in the digital age. New
technologies enable teachers to more effectively interact with students
and individualise instruction with easy access to rich and diverse
digital content.
Speaking at the Press Conference, the Country Manager for Dell Sri
Lanka, Shermal Jayathilaka noted, “Dell’s Connected Classroom has been
welcomed by schools around the world as a means to connect students and
teachers through technology and promote collaboration both inside and
away from the classroom. Dell is placing the needs of students and
teachers at the heart of the learning environment by providing the tools
that teachers need to plan and deliver effective lessons.”
The solution arms the students with necessary acumen and expertise
that are needed to survive in the digital age.
It provides the students with digital resources and tools which they
need to collaborate within the classroom. Speaking at the press
conference, head of Education Practice, Dell South Asia and Korea, Rani
Buchmorethe noted, “Global Education is the ultimate goal and school
administrators need to make considered decision when it comes to
technology. By combining our vision for education with our advanced
technology, we believe that schools and universities will be better
placed to prepare students to survive in the digital age.”
