Samsung Galaxy Tab designed for education purposes

It seems that the folks over at Samsung are not in
any danger at all of running out of ideas when it
comes to the Samsung Galaxy Tab range. In fact,
Samsung has recently announced a new Galaxy Tab
which was exclusively designed for education
purposes. This particular tablet was introduced at
FETC, where it will play nice with Google Play for
Education. This new Galaxy Tab has been
exclusively developed for education, where it will be
made available for K-12 school deployments for the
2014-2015 academic year. It will be introduced as
part of the Google Play for Education program,
where this classroom-ready, 10.1” tablet will be able
to offer simple set up as well as device
management, in addition to access to curated
educational content, and other features which will
support dynamic, digital teaching and learning.
This particular education-specific Galaxy Tab tablet
has been specially designed for integration with
Google Play for Education, alongside Google’s
content store for K-12 schools. With Google Play for
Education, educators will be able to enjoy access to
a wide selection of teacher-approved apps , books,
and videos, so that they are able to deliver a more
engaging and personalized learning experience to
individual students. Teachers too, are able to
perform a search for content by grade, subject and
standard (including Common Core), make purchases
using a pre-loaded school PO instead of a credit
card, and deliver content to students’ tablets in a
matter of seconds.
This particular Galaxy Tab for Education would offer
students a 10.1” WXGA display, where one would be
able to enjoy an exceptional viewing experience with
a 16:10 aspect ratio that makes it perfect for
viewing educational content. This particular tablet
will also run on the most recent version of Android
4.4 KitKat, sports WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n connectivity,
front and back cameras, the inclusion of Near Field
Communications (NFC) technology, making it a jiffy
to set up a classroom of devices with a few taps.
