The deployment of smart classrooms in Ha Tinh has caused much debate
According to reports, Nguyen Du Primary School has implemented smart classrooms in grades 1 and 2 on the voluntary basis of parents. In this smart classroom, each student must pay nearly 2 million VND for installing shared equipment and must equip themselves with a tablet worth 8.5 million VND.
For parents who do not register their children for smart classes, the school still teaches the children according to the normal class program as before.
Regarding the above incident, social networks have debated whether or not to implement smart classrooms. Supporters believe that this is a new model to help students access information technology early, helping children be interested in learning because it increases interactivity.
However, many other opinions suggest that the smart classroom model should not be implemented at the primary school level, especially for first-grade students because they are still young and will affect their eyesight. See more...
