Classpad is an Android-based educational tablet computer from Classteacher Learning Systems.

Features and specifications

[edit]

The tablet comes with a version of the Android 4.0 operating system with some custom skins and applications provided by Classteacher Learning Systems.

Classpad, touted to be a competition for Aakash,[1] the world's cheapest tablet, is conceptualised to customise education in a way that every student can be reached and participate in the process of learning. The Classpad claims a better battery life, 1.3 GHz processing speed and a built-in memory of 8 GB, which is expandable to 32 GB. The device is also equipped with artificial intelligence.[specify]

Students can enter text into the tablet with an on-screen keyboard.

The use of Classpads makes the teachers transfer class works to the students' tablets, share their own content instantly at ease, and conduct tests.[2][3][4][5][6]
