Kenyan High School's Tech-Driven Learning: Chromebooks Replace Textbooks

Kenyan High School Students Embrace Tech-Based Learning Nairobi, Kenya – A recent video provides a unique perspective on the educational landscape of Kenyan high schools. Three students candidly discuss their reliance on technology, specifically Chromebooks and mobile phones, as their primary learning tools. The video highlights the challenges and adaptations within the school system. "So basically, we use technology to learn. We use Chromebooks; we don't have textbooks at all," one student explains. This reliance on technology is further emphasized by another student who notes, "We don't even use notebooks; we just type it down." The video also touches upon the school's policy on phone usage. While phones are permitted, they must be kept off and away during class. However, students are allowed to use their phones outside of class time. The use of technology in education, even with its limitations, showcases the adaptability of students and institutions in navigating modern learning environments. The video's insights into the use of technology in education in Kenya offer a valuable perspective on the evolving educational landscape in developing countries.
