Canadian school boards seeking e-learning solutions for students

As ongoing restrictions and social distancing measures due to the COVID-19 pandemic continue to impact the education sector, one thing remains certain: e-learning is here to stay. Moreover, schools continue to work to optimize their digital capabilities to provide environments conducive to learning – both in the classroom and virtually, with durable and affordable tech solutions jumping to the top of their wish list.
During the past year of remote learning, Chromebooks have provided a solution for school boards due to their affordability, reliability and access to a vast suite of tools and services. Whether learning in-person or virtually, Chromebooks have the features to help teachers and students adapt to their learning environment.

“The education sector has undergone transformative change over the last 12 months – with technology and digital solutions at the centre,” said Jennifer Safruk, VP, Mobile Business, Samsung Electronics Canada. “Access to the right devices will help strengthen our schools and support students. Samsung is here to help ensure this year is as efficient, connected and productive as possible.”

To help support this ongoing wave of change, Samsung Canada is now offering an expanded lineup of e-learning solutions for Canada’s schools. Fast, lightweight and affordable, the Samsung Chromebook 4 and Chromebook 4+ are user-friendly solutions for today’s new normal.
