As the academe navigates through the challenges of transitioning to e-learning, Lenovo Philippines and Microsoft, through EdVisions, help bridge the gap in making education accessible to as many Filipino students as possible during this difficult time.
Under the new Lenovo EdVisions program, a number of pioneer schools in the Philippines will be provided with free access to online resources that will help them through their education transformation journey, as well as complimentary or subsidized access to the latest solutions in education tech. As partners in the program, the schools will join Lenovo and Microsoft to promote and drive the widespread adoption of technology in the education space. Lenovo understands the challenges schools face in transforming education and implementing new models of teaching, learning, and collaboration while managing cost, efficiency, and security,” said Lenovo Philippines President and General Manager Michael Ngan.
The program begins in the Philippines, followed by Indonesia, Thailand, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Malaysia.
Partners in the EdVisions program will enjoy an early view of future technologies that can make education more flexible, tailored, and effective. We are investing in education now and for the future,” said Microsoft Philippines Country General Manager Andres Ortola.
Envisioning the Schools of the Future
Students and educators are part of the journey of this program. To make it even more exciting, Lenovo Philippines is holding the Traveling Storybook Contest that will challenge students’ creativity and share Filipino students’ vision towards the future of education and the classroom with the world.
The Traveling Storybook Contest invites students across the Philippines to describe using words and visuals their vision of what their school would look like 20, 40, or even 100 years into the future. Full mechanics will be announced soon.
Schools and industry partners who join the EdVisions program will work collaboratively with Lenovo and Microsoft to promote the digital transformation of education by participating in press conferences and other outreach activities.
Institutions interested in participating in the EdVisions program may find more information at the official website that will soon go live at <www.lenovo.com/edvision>.
