SEOUL – Some 70,530 electronic devices have been distributed to seventh-grade students across middle schools in Seoul to help them transition to digital textbooks that will be used from 2025, said the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education on Wednesday.
To keep students’ devices powered and ready for use, the Education Office will install charging stations at each school and set up a service centre with trained technical support staff to help with repairs of school laptops and tablets. To address concerns about the immediate and long-term effects of exposing students to gadgets, the school-issued devices have a function that shields students from harmful websites, Internet content and gaming applications.
