Follow on Google News | Lantronix Rallies Around Digital Classroom with Launch of Print and Learn (PAL) ProgrammeNational Parent Teacher Organisation Endorses PAL Programme; Helps Schools and Universities Get the Most Out of Mobile Devices
By: Lantronix With a mission to compliment school programmes to foster student achievement, the National Parent Teacher Organisation (http://www.pto.org/) “Technology- It may seem counter to the notion of going digital, but the digital classroom with its tablets, netbooks and other devices creates an undeniable need for paper. In fact, there remains a strong need for students and teachers to be able to print a variety of items – from homework to tests to lesson plans. But printing from mobile devices can be a challenge – with software downloads and kludgy apps that may or may not be effective. Moreover, with the bulk of technology purchases going towards tablets and Chromebooks, many schools do not have the resources to spend tens of thousands of dollars to buy new printers with built-in mobile printing capabilities. “Lantronix has been a long-time partner to the education market, providing many IT solutions over the years,” said Kurt Busch, Lantronix president and CEO. “With the increasing adoption of tablets and other mobile devices in the classroom, it is clear that schools need a simple and cost-effective mobile printing solution. Supporting our education institutions and promoting meaningful digital integration into the classroom is something we believe in, and we’re happy that we can play a role to ease the transition to the digital classroom.” Product Discounts The xPrintServer (http://www.lantronix.com/ Idea Sharing Students and teachers alike are encouraged to visit the PAL Facebook page at www.facebook.com/ Photo Contest To kick off the PAL Programme, Lantronix is hosting a year-long photo contest, in which students and educators are encouraged to submit photos highlighting technology creativity in the classroom.
