The Minister of Education has officially announced a series of last-minute measures for tens of thousands of classes in all schools in Romania, measures that will have a major impact for all students in our country, and this is because the classic blackboards will be replaced with others digital, thanks to the money from PNRR.
The Minister of Education makes this very important announcement in the context in which he wants to make fundamental changes for the educational system in Romania, and digitization is one of the extremely important elements that the authorities in our country are focusing on in this period of time.
"Being a determined supporter of the digitization of education, I would not give up the knowledge of handwriting. However, at the hardware level, a major reform will be the replacement of the blackboard, the famous blackboard with chalk on blackboard, sponge to erase. It is an instrument that produced effects in our education, for all of us, but it is an instrument that no longer attracts the last generations.
All classic boards will be replaced by smart boards, this is a first step. They are huge tablets, exactly, and those teachers who do not have highly developed digital skills, do not have to do anything more than write with the marker on those interactive boards as they write on the classic blackboard. Of course, you can delete screen after screen, the advantage is that each student can store the lesson in real time on a laptop, phone, any device.
Even students who will not be able to attend classes will be able to have these lessons. A second step, having such a tool in front of you, no matter how little developed your skills as a teacher are, you can illustrate a simple search, using a search engine, an experiment in physics or anatomy, you can find IT resources.
The teacher will be able to present them in a much more interactive way for the students because it is a way to keep the students interested in the school, it is a way to transform the teacher from the classical role he had, and it was very good for the periods respectively, in a facilitator, in a mentor, guide.
Among the countless sources of information on the Internet, we will recommend those sources that are credible, that are effective, in the interest of the students, to be able to acquire the skills that we all want. All classrooms will receive these smart boards with the money from PNRR, and I inform you that there are over 80.000 classrooms in Romania."
