Driving classroom innovation with AMD Processors
It’s known that students and staff want the fastest and most reliable devices and with the change in education and the way schools are enabling teaching and learning, we can understand why. Now that technology is playing a part in everyday life at home for children, we need to ensure we’re enabling them to get the best start with technology in school. As well as showing them how to be safe and use technology correctly in the future.
Staff are dealing with important student data, using technology more and more for registration, homework and lessons. They need the power and security to feel confident when doing these things in the classroom and Chromebooks and Windows Laptops offer this. More than ever, your school needs secure, reliable, high-performance PC computing. That’s where AMD Processors come in. While every PC in the world is powered by a processor, not all processors are created equal.
