Why Surface?

The evidence is clear – the way students enter information into a computer makes a big difference. Schools and school systems need to understand that even with great teachers and excellent planning, computers can either enhance a student’s ability to think, communicate and learn, or seriously undermine it. 

Microsoft Surface tablets can unlock the true potential of your classrooms with true multi-modal learning. With Surface, touch, pen, keyboard, audio, camera and video input all come together in a seamless experience on one device. 

Importantly Surface includes the most advanced pen technology on the market. 

For students, having a device with a digital pen is important for learning. Pen enables students to engage in: 

  • Annotating and active, immersive reading
  • Generating, capturing and synthesizing ideas - messy, creative thinking that is not catered for with keyboards
  • Visible learning - capture your student's thinking (formative assessment) - Especially important for STEM subjects where pen expression is more fluid and natural
  • Processing, reflection and summarising when note-taking - Handwriting helps students to construct and retain knowledge.
  • Deep thinking and problem solving - 24.5% more correct answers when solving science problems
  • Idea generation - 56% more ideas generated from brainstorming with a digital pen - organizing thoughts visually.

For teachers, giving feedback with digital pen is faster enabling fluid interaction that is far richer than typed input.
