Bangkok--Nov 22--Carl Byoir & Associates
Intel Corporation CEO Craig Barrett recently visited the Yannawate Wittayakom School, one of 400 Thai schools participating in the Intel? Teach to the Future teacher training initiative. Mr. Barrett also participated in Mathematic class of Mattayom 3, enjoying knowing that students and teachers learn more about using technology in the classroom.
Thailand participates in the Intel Teach to the Future program, a worldwide effort to help teachers integrate technology into instruction to develop students’ higher-level thinking skills and enhance learning. Nearly 6,000 teachers have been trained in Thailand through Intel Teach to the Future since it was launched in April 2002.
“Thailand’s digital transformation will be strengthened by continuing to promote PC ownership and technology integration into the classroom,” said Barrett. “Effectively integrating technology into the education process opens up new and exciting possibilities of learning and gives young people the knowledge and skills to innovate and compete in an increasingly complex world.”
Intel, the world’s largest chip maker, is also a leading manufacturer of computer, networking and communications products. Additional information about Intel is available at www.intel.com/pressroom.
