Modern classroom in elementary school Pećine

Opening ceremony of the newly renovated computer classroom was held in elementary school Pećine. The classroom is equipped with the newest computer equipment worth 60.000,00 HRK which is a donation from companies STORM Grupa and Rittal.

In elementary school Pećine, on 11th of September, newly renovated computer classroom was opened. At the beginning of this year the act of vandalism damaged a large part of the school's inventory and equipment and therefore the company STORM Grupa decided to donate computer equipment worth 60.000,00 HRK. The equipment consist of twenty monitors with mouses and keyboards, projector, router, network cabinet, server and NComputing device that connect server with work place. Also, worth to mention, earlier this year City of Rijeka provided school with additional funds of 40.000,00 HRK aimed for the purchase of equipment for the Department for children with visual impairment and their school library.

Donated equipment provides ability to perform interactive educational process with the use of multimedia and Internet. The case is about the modest technologies that exist today in the school system and which will enable students to learn not just the lessons in computer science but in all other areas. Additional benefit of NComputing technology is reduction in the need for hardware. Each work place no longer requires its own housing, what elementary school Pećine not only ranks as the leading school in Croatia with implementation of ICT in teaching but also makes the school extremely energy efficient. Virtualization and system integration enable execution of interactive educational process with the use of multimedia and Internet providing high quality of learning. At the same time and regardless of the platform, classroom provides savings and is open for future extensions and improvements.

Hereby, elementary school Pećine is one of the leading schools in implementing information and communication technologies in teaching and overall school business processes.
