What is Vodacom m-Education solution?
• Our m-Education solution lets educators improve the classroom experience for their students, using rich digitized media content. Learners will access the same curriculum content and learning materials that the educator uses in the class, and this will be delivered via their smartphones, tablets, digital boards or PC browser.
• Internet connectivity is an added advantage for this solution. It’s essential for reporting and ‘work from home’ functionality, but content can still be accessed when they’re offline. The educators will manage resources, create lessons, schedule remote lessons and log, monitor and report on learners. Content and lesson plans are stored on a local server in the school and synchronized in the cloud, from where it’s accessible by educators, administrators and parents.

Educators will be trained to use the e-books in the classroom, the Learner Management System and Internet resources, while additional support will be available online via email as well as school visits to coach educators on how to improve their lessons in the classroom.
