MICROSOFT HITS AGAIN

Microsoft, in partnership with Dynamiss Digital Learning Solutions Limited, a teaching and learning digital solutions company, is set to unveil the Dynamiss LP+365 classroom solution, a cloud-based learning platform that transforms the Microsoft Office365 into a school’s virtual learning environment that enables teachers to design and plan the curriculum, deliver subject material, manage coursework and communicate with learners using simple drag and drop technology.



The Dynamiss LP+365 offers educators and students the opportunity to access Always-On access to knowledge, personalized learning, better engagement, improved communication and collaboration. Commenting on the initiative, Education Programmes Manager, Microsoft Nigeria, Jordan Belmote, said digital literacy is neither an option nor a luxury, rather an essential part of studying, working and living in the 21st century. His words “This is the real deal for every educator, the Dynamiss LP+365 solution provides students with an ‘always on’ learning experience anytime, anywhere. Students can access the platform through mobile devices using Microsoft productivity tools to do everything from taking notes, submitting coursework to collaborating with their classmates on projects. The platform brings together the best of Microsoft cloud technology and Office365 to create an engaging and intuitive, personalized learning environment for teacher-student interaction.” Also speaking, the CEO, Dynamiss Digital Learning Solutions Limited, Mr. Roland Sodeinde, said; “the motive of the solution is to enhance digital literacy in Nigerian schools. Nigeria has made significant progress over the last decade in preparing students for the digital world that we now live in, but there is a need to put more in place, to become competitive and play at the same level as their counterparts in developed countries. Whether we like it or not, whether we prepare our children or not, the world is changing at a previously unimaginable pace.”
