our schools in the wealthy city-state have begun handing out Apple
iPads to students, relieving them of the need to carry satchels full of
bulging text books and notes.
Nanyang Girls High School has spent S$135,000 (about $100,000) to buy 150 iPads for 140 students and 10 teachers in a pilot project. Users connect to the Internet using the tablet, and download books and course material. Other schools in Singapore using the tablet include Tampines Secondary School (http://www.tpss.moe.edu.sg/cos/o.x?c=/wbn/pagetree&func=view&rid=50269), Nanhua Primary School and Dunman Secondary School. http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE70D1MH20110114http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE70D1MH20110114 |
