Mobile Computing

Mobile computing devices have become essential to daily life — at work, at home and increasingly, at school. Students are using them to access information, interact with others and produce dynamic content — such as podcasts, reports and videos — inside and outside of the classroom.

But there are many choices in mobile devices, each with its own unique capabilities. School districts in the digital age are looking to invest in technologies that help them achieve the best educational outcomes for their particular goals and needs.

Dell offers a full spectrum of mobile computing devices, powered by Intel®, that are ideally suited for educational use and the expertise to help you choose the right solutions for your district:

  • Netbooks: Light and ultracompact, the student-friendly Dell™ Latitude 2120 netbook with the Intel® Atom processor features a durable rubberized case and enables easy collaboration, quick connectivity and simple access to digital content.
  • Laptops: Ideal for content creation and collaboration, Dell laptops include the Dell Latitude E6520 laptop featuring the Intel® Core i processor that strikes a balance between mobility and performance for students with advanced computing needs.
  • Tablets: Primarily designed for content consumption, Dell tablets are exceptionally versatile and come in several varieties. Teachers and students often prefer them for tasks such as reading literature or reviewing notes. The Latitude ST is a true, education-ready tablet.
  • Carts: Dell and its partners provide computer carts that secure, store and charge your mobile computers, and manage software and system updates.

Dell Mobile Computing Solutions not only help your schools overcome the basic issues of data protection and device management, but also enable you to incorporate the widest range of devices — including non-Dell devices — without introducing excessive burden to IT management. 

Find out more about how Dell can provide safe, efficient mobile computing devices for your district.
