Benefits of the AstraLab Compujector: - Reduced Workload for Teachers: There is no need for time-consuming searching for reading content, setting of comprehension exercises and then the usual arduous marking, as all the marking is done in the class during the Reading lesson of about 40 minutes.
- Individual Assessment and Measurement: The AstraLab Reading Solution is the only solution that combines the benefits of whole-class teaching and Individual assessment and measurement. In short, it is the best of both worlds in a really cost-effective solution.
- Massive reduction in IT Costs: The AstraLab Compujector costs about 10% of the installation cost of a 25-station computer Laboratory. It also costs about 1-2% of the annual running costs of a complete computer laboratory. Learners interact individually with the AstraLab Solution. Learners are able to run the technology for the teacher quite easily.
- Safety: Many SA schools experience theft of their IT resources. The AstraLab UNIT comes in a portable, padded, robust aluminium suitcase that can easily be carried by a junior school learner to and from the school's strong-room.
- Other Uses of the AstraLab Compujector: The portable AstraLab Compujector can also be used for Science, Maths, Languages etc as it has powerful pentium 4 processing capability, 1 GB of RAM and an on-board DVD R / W optical drive, a hi-resolution camera wired-in, TV and radio reception, 2 USB2 ports, a LAN port, built-in loudspeakers and a wireless Internet connection. In short, it is a classroom in a box: the 21st Century replacement for the overhead projector. You can play movies, CD's, teach, entertain and do project work all on-line in the classroom. Models come with or without mobile power and UPS supply. The Compujector works perfectly together with interactive whiteboards....the complete mobile ITC solution for African classrooms where power and connectivity are a challenge.
