ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS FACE THE SAME
CHALLENGES AS OTHER BUSINESSES WITH
A CHANGING FUTURE OF WORK
The rapidly changing business landscape is complex, and the
mandates for education parallel enterprise imperatives in many
ways. There is unprecedented pressure for educators, in K-12
and higher education alike, to manage costs, to be resource
efficient (especially with regard to energy consumption), to
measure impact and outcomes and to actively secure data and
information for students, educators and administrators.
Educators are challenged to update curricula, to make
learning more relevant and accessible across different learning
styles, needs and contexts, and to address re-skilling needs
in the workforce. As classrooms embrace more engaged,
personalized and immersive learning, there is also pressure
to understand the technology that enables it. HP’s extensive
resources for educators and administrators are designed to
meet this critical need and empower educators to make the
most of these amazing new tools for teaching and learning.

NEW DEVICES AND SOLUTIONS ARE NEEDED
TO SUPPORT NEW MODELS OF TEACHING
AND LEARNING
A next-generation learning environment deserves next-
generation personal computing systems for learners: rugged
devices with long battery life, which are lightweight and
loaded with collaboration-and-creation tools and features,
and are protected by advanced security and monitoring
technology. These are the requirements for HP’s Education
Edition products and solutions based on feedback HP
gathered from thousands of teachers, students and school
administrators. The HP ProBook x360 Education Edition
is an example, reflecting HP’s focus on offering students
everywhere all-the-time access to content, curricula and
collaboration they need to enable true learning, delivering
meaningful outcomes for themselves and their communities.
LOOK DIFFERENT HP Learning Studios, deployed in more than 15 countries
worldwide, bring state-of-the-art educational technology from
HP, Microsoft and partners into the classroom. Equipment
in the studios comprises a range of products for exploring
and learning, including HP’s Education Edition products,
Sprout Pro and HP PageWide printers; Dremel 3D printers;
and Microsoft Windows 10, Office 365, Skype and OneNote.
Students and educators at every level can learn how to use the
latest tools to solve real-world problems, craft unique learning
experiences and prepare for careers in science, technology,
engineering, arts and math (STEAM).
Next-generation learning is dynamic, kinetic and engaging.
It’s designed for the interactive real-world environment,
rather than a traditional, passive lecture format. Technology
is enabling new modes of instruction for more personalized
student-centered learning that helps students develop higher-
order cognitive skills. As students learn and explore, HP helps
educators create learning environments optimized for these
activities, which include: HP provides a Learning Studio model for the next-generation
classroom: creative, collaborative spaces where students can
explore the design and fabrication of products to achieve
practical, measurable results. The program includes a rich
offering for educators: an online community with lesson plans,
curriculum, monthly global projects and a social network for
sharing ideas and resources.

FROM CLASSROOM OF THE FUTURE
TO CAMPUS OF THE FUTURE
Higher education is fertile terrain for exploring applications
of new technology. Helping K-12 students develop higher-
level cognitive skills and creating curious lifelong learners
via rich, immersive classroom experiences is a solid first step.
