Panasonic’s contribution covers shared research projects but also supports basic enablement for educational efforts all over Europe. One area of applications Panasonic can support is in distance learning. Panasonic started two programmes in early 2020 to support the provision of distance learning by schools and universities. Branded “Educational Accellence”, the programmes have been created with the intention to focus on ‘acceleration’ and ‘excellence’. Panasonic’s ambition is to enable easier access to outstanding learning environments – making the digital learning experience at least an equal one to that of on-site classroom sessions.
Donating Equipment to Aid e-Learning
Panasonic’s partnerships with Apprentis D’Auteuil in France, Die Arche Kinder Projekt in Germany, and Save the Children in the UK will see 100 refurbished semi-rugged laptops and handheld devices shared with socially disadvantaged families within a two-year period. The programme is focused on enabling children to have access to the full benefits of eLearning in the current climate
