For the first time in recent history, national-level school exams like SEE had to be cancelled in 2020.

Adults, well most of us, did our best to keep our sanity intact.

But young kids need more than anything at that age is proper guidance.

Thankfully we live in a golden age of the internet and not all children had to spend their lockdown without schooling.

There is no place to learn and grow like the outside world, but we shouldn’t dismiss the value of something from which we can gain knowledge from.

The criteria for kids-friendly laptops can be ease of access to related programs or apps, spill-resistant keyboards, and less costly.

If your kids have to regularly stay online and stream educational videos online your Intel Core i3 processor should be enough.

For tasks like writing papers, making PowerPoint slides etc. may only need Intel Celeron or Pentium processors.

 

Acer Chromebook Spin 11

First and foremost it’s a convertible laptop, so it can be used as a traditional notebook.

It supports Android apps and comes with a Wacom stylus for writing or drawing on a tablet mode screen.

It is super durable to handle the rough treatment it might receive from young ones.

The Chromebook 11 is made up of plastics so it can survive up to around 60 kg of weight, 11 ounces of liquid, and 48 inches of fall.

The outer design is aimed to be rugged to be more childproof.

The battery can run up to 11 to 13 hours in a full charge, in case the child gets carried away in their school works or games or YouTube videos.

Its standard OS is Chrome OS, which is basically a web browser that works for the best while selecting a computer for children.

It is easier to learn to navigate through the programs as it is very similar to the software on android cellphones.

Performance-wise it may not be the best laptops out there, but it hits the right mark for studies and light entertainment.

The kids aren’t really concerned with the speed of the device, as long as their tasks are being done.

As the world is affected by the novel Coronavirus Pandemic, the teaching-learning process has shifted to online or digital approach. From elementary-level to university-level, all the classes are being conducted online throughout the world. Consequently, parents are concerned about the gadgets that could help their kids in digital learning.

People, generally, use a Smartphone, tablet or laptop for online education. Considering different factors like availability, health aspects, budget, screen, class-time, etc. the suitability of a gadget for online education differs from person to person and their age-group. 

Here, we present you the device or gadget that could be efficient and suitable for you or your kids.

Smartphone 

The gadget possessed by a lot of people i.e. Smartphone is handy, portable and easy to use. It is best suitable for short classes with possibly less or no slide shows or whiteboards because the screen is too small to read the content and can strain your eyes. Being handy, children can easily use it and surf the net for homework as well. The battery part may also be another disadvantage if you have longer classes. And, I personally feel that it’s difficult to do and submit homework and assignments in a Smartphone. But, if you have a limited budget, go with smartphones because something is better than nothing.

Tablet

Tablet, with a relatively large screen, is the best device for children. It won't strain the eyes as one can easily read the contents in a slide show or whiteboards. As it is easy to use, the children can join the classes on-their-own and can also surf the internet for their homework conveniently. There are several budget-friendly tablets as well which don’t lack much in functions and features. The battery aspect differs with the brand but will not cause many problems. Tablets are suitable for higher class students with a limited budget as well.

Laptop

Laptop, in my opinion, is the best gadget for online education. From attending classes to completing assignments and projects easily, it is the best device for students (from mid-school and above) and teachers. Varieties of functions, larger screen size and longer battery life are the major advantages of using a laptop for online education. However, the budget aspect can be a disadvantage as most of the good laptops are above $400 or Nrs. 40,000.

Online education, superficially, seems to be a great substitute for traditional education approach and also a step closer towards a digital world. But, it has its own consequences as well; Increase in screen-time leads to an increase in health risk as well. So, it’s better if you try to reduce the screen-time as much as possible.

These devices are somewhat larger than the Swift series. You'll get the standard specifications, which include an Intel U-series CPU, an embedded GPU, SSD drive, and more.

Acer Aspire 5

The Acer Aspire 5 is a mid-range laptop that checks almost all of the boxes for a daily laptop: it does well in most activities, plays media well, and has a long battery life, all for a reasonable price.

A USB 3.1 Type-C Gen 1 port, two USB 3.1 Type-A Gen 1 ports, a USB 2.0 port, an HDMI 2.0 port, a microSD card reader, an Ethernet port, a Kensington lock, and headset and battery jacks are all included in the system.
