Background



Personal Learning Device (PLD)
At PRSS, all students use a Google Chromebook as their PLD. Chromebooks are chosen for their variety of affordances, including seamless learning experiences alongside existing teaching and learning technologies such as the SLS, Google Suite for Education Apps and Microsoft Pro Plus. It is also a relatively lightweight and portable device that offers students convenient learning on-the-move. A full charge of the battery typically allows students to work on their PLDs for the entire curriculum hours.
From 2021, every Secondary 1 student will purchase the Lenovo 500e Chromebook 2nd Gen as the school-prescribed PLD. This device is a touchscreen convertible
laptop (i.e. can be used as a laptop or rotated 180o into a tablet)
and comes with its own in-built stylus for inking functions.
