Learning without limits
ASUS has just launched its Chromebook CR series, which has been tailored for the needs of those providing education for children and young people aged five to 18.
Accidental damage is
common when they are used by small hands – or just moved around a school – so a normal laptop isn’t what educators are looking for.
Laptops are now an integral part of any teacher’s everyday equipment, as children need to be taught how to use laptops from an early age. But laptops used in educational settings need certain qualities such as ruggedness if they are to survive for any length of time. Accidental damage is common when they are used by small hands – or just moved around a school – so a normal laptop isn’t what educators are looking for. To this end, ASUS has launched its next- generation ASUS Chromebook CR series of laptops, tailored to meet the needs of students from reception to Year 13. The Chromebook CR series has been designed for the needs of students whether they are in a classroom or learning remotely. The rugged and modular design, featuring replaceable internal parts, guarantees durability and longevity. For instance, with 11.6-inch or 12.2-inch Corning Gorilla Glass touchscreens and a 180° lay-flat or 360°-flippable hinge, the laptops offer flexibility for enriched educational experiences, and that can stand up to the rough usage they can sometimes have in education settings.
Rugged partner For school students, an everyday-use laptop should be invincible. Scratches and knocks are an almost-inevitable part of their daily routine, as they are likely passed from class to class so the Chromebook CR series features an all- round rubber bumper for extra peace of mind. The laptops also feature a rugged design that's tested to meet or exceed the MIL-STD-810H US military-grade standard and use tough Corning Gorilla Glass to protect the touchscreen from scratches. Additionally, the spill-resistant keyboard can cope with minor water spills without harm, so minor splashes on the desk or at the dinner table can be easily drained, cleaned and dried. Finally, the special fingerprint-resistant finish keeps the laptop cleaner for longer. Effortless flexibility The Chromebook CR series laptops are powered by up to Intel N250 processor and are equipped with either 180° lay-flat or 360°-flippable hinges. The clamshell models (CR1104C, CR1204C) facilitate easy group sharing, while the convertible models
