LAS VEGAS, NV — (Marketwire) — 01/11/12 — — Fuhu, Inc., maker of the kiddified tablet, announced today at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) a new education initiative to bring Nabi tablets to the classroom. As a robust, Android-based tablet designed specifically for children, Nabi merges entertainment and education for kids of all ages. Combined with a sub-$200 price point, and special educational pricing options, it-s an ideal fit for both individual and group learning in the classroom.
Since Nabi runs on its own custom platform for the Android OS, it offers a number of unique advantages for education deployments:
Separate student and teacher modes on each device can limit students- online exposure while giving teachers control over their classroom-s tablets
Teachers can create a unified login for each class, to customize the content each student sees and highlight heavily used and relevant applications for their grade
Nabi app store for real-time access to new apps and games
Ability to work with Fuhu directly on further customization
The Nabi tablet also features a number of core educational experiences, including:
Reading, math, and science programs from top learning program providers
A dozen language immersion apps including Chinese, French, Spanish and sign language
A wide variety of education applications, including math and science
“We-ve been contacted by a number of school districts around the country interested in equipping their classrooms with Nabi tablets, so we-re launching an education program to easily enable educators to deploy Nabi,” said Jim Mitchell, CEO of Fuhu, Inc.
