Towards Purposeful StudentComputers - School WorkComputer Concept

Abstract: This Master's thesis studies how the technologies of today could be developed to better support education. An analysis is conducted of digital learning tools on the educational technology market. Based on this analysis a conclusion is made that while many other digital tools for education are well suited for their use, only a few computers are designed purely for students. While students in higher education do draw bene ts of using standard laptops and computers in their study work, the students in primary and secondary education should be provided with special learning computers. Therefore a conceptual design is presented for a mobile student computer that helps the students focus on school work.
