A brand that has always been at the forefront of educational solutions, Samsung has a cutting-edge philosophy regarding innovation in the school sector. But where are we at? And what could be the new solutions?
Beyond the individual products, which we deliberately will not talk about in this article, school 2.0 is a complex and stimulating panorama, which lends itself to innovation but also requires safe guidance and adequate technologies. In fact, it is undeniable that since the days of the blackboard and chalk, the world of education has made proverbial giant strides.
If the starting point was the farewell to the traditional blackboard, supplanted by the IWB and, subsequently, by multi-touch displays, which allow teachers to create multimedia and engaging lessons, the further step also involves textbooks. In what sense? Simple: in the logic of increasingly interconnected and technologically advanced classes, digital boards will increasingly represent the beating heart not only of school architecture, but also of teaching activities, with sharing of teaching and information material made decidedly easier and immediate and a degree of dynamism in teaching that was previously impossible to achieve.
In this way, the methods of learning also change profoundly, and we connect here to the basic point of Samsung’s philosophy for the Educational sector: to inspire through innovation. By offering increasingly high-performance platforms and products capable of meeting the needs of both teachers and students, Samsung facilitates interactive learning and collaboration, as well as the dynamism of lessons and teaching activities.
All this, obviously without neglecting a fundamental theme: the safety of students, both in terms of the protection of personal data loaded into devices and in terms of health. Working with a display risks tiring the eyes more than the traditional whiteboard. This is why Samsung displays offer eye protection and blue light blocking technologies.
A further step, achievable thanks to Samsung SMART Signage products, is the interconnection of entire campuses, within which students can share information, communications and instructions in real time.
On a purely technological level, then, there is almost no limit to the possibilities that research on Artificial Intelligence will open up to the world of schools: interactive multi-touch displays with AI on board could represent the next revolution in the Educational sector. You can bet on one thing: Samsung will be at the forefront!
