[QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 48023, member: 636"] Paratus just rolled out a game-changing internet service for African schools. The telecom giant partnered with Starlink to bring high-speed internet to remote classrooms across seven countries. Students from Botswana to Zambia can access online learning materials for the first time. The company calls the new service EduLINK and targets schools that struggle with poor internet connections. Teachers receive professional installation and ongoing technical support from local Paratus teams. Schools must show valid education certificates to qualify for the program. Each participating school receives 2TB of priority data every month. The satellite technology works even where traditional internet cables cannot reach. Paratus sells the required Starlink equipment separately from the monthly service plan. Local payment options make the service affordable for qualifying educational institutions. The telecommunications provider already helped transform education across Namibia over seven years. More than 12,000 students and 471 teachers gained access to digital learning tools through previous Paratus programs. Test scores improved dramatically after schools connected to reliable internet services. Students engaged more actively with lessons and completed assignments faster than before. Academic performance jumped across participating schools throughout the country. Starlink satellites orbit much closer to Earth than traditional communication satellites. The advanced technology delivers faster speeds and reduces delays that frustrate online learners. Remote schools can run video calls, download educational videos, and participate in virtual field trips. Students complete digital exams and collaborate on projects with peers from other schools. The service creates equal learning opportunities regardless of geographic location. [/QUOTE]
