Samsung Electronics East Africa has launched Samsung Digital Classroom, a new integrated education solution aimed at supporting Kenya’s digital learning agenda by enabling schools to deliver secure, connected and collaborative learning experiences.
The solution combines Samsung Tablets, Samsung Interactive Boards and Knox for Classrooms into a single ecosystem that allows teachers to manage lessons, monitor student participation and deliver digital content more effectively while giving school administrators greater control over classroom technology.
The launch comes as Kenya continues to advance digital learning through the Competency-Based Curriculum (CBC) and wider education digitisation initiatives, with schools increasingly seeking solutions that not only provide access to devices but also improve classroom engagement, simplify technology management and deliver better learning outcomes.
Samsung said the Digital Classroom solution has been designed to meet these evolving needs by integrating classroom management, device security and collaborative teaching tools into one connected platform.
At the centre of the solution is a seamless ecosystem linking Samsung Tablets with Samsung Interactive Boards, allowing teachers to present lessons on interactive displays before instantly sharing learning materials to students’ tablets. Educators can also conduct quizzes, monitor learner participation, assess progress and provide immediate feedback through Knox for Classrooms.
The Interactive Board serves as the classroom’s collaborative hub, while learner tablets enable students to access digital content, complete assignments and actively participate in classroom activities. Powered by Samsung’s Knox security platform, schools can centrally deploy, monitor and manage devices across multiple classrooms, giving administrators greater visibility and control over their digital learning environments.
Samsung says the solution provides governments, schools and education institutions with a scalable approach to implementing connected classrooms across multiple campuses while helping maximise returns on technology investments through integrated classroom management and enterprise-grade security.
The Digital Classroom solution is designed for use across primary schools, secondary schools, tertiary institutions and technical training centres. It also aims to reassure parents that classroom technology is being used in a structured, secure and education-focused environment where teachers remain in control of the learning process.
Speaking during the launch, Anthony Njihia, Mobile Experience B2B Manager at Samsung Electronics East Africa, said education technology should support every stakeholder within the learning ecosystem.
“Kenya has made significant progress in advancing digital learning, and the next phase is ensuring that technology delivers meaningful impact in the classroom. Samsung Digital Classroom has been designed to help education institutions create connected learning environments that are secure, collaborative and easy to manage, while enabling teachers to focus on what matters most—delivering quality education and improving learner outcomes,” he said.
Njihia added that digital transformation in education requires integrated ecosystems rather than standalone devices.
“Digital transformation is most successful when technology works seamlessly for everyone involved. Teachers need tools that simplify lesson delivery and assessments, school administrators require visibility and control over devices, parents want confidence that technology is supporting learning, and governments need scalable solutions that can be deployed sustainably. Samsung Digital Classroom brings these elements together in one integrated ecosystem to help build classrooms that are ready for the future,” he said.
Samsung Electronics East Africa said it will continue partnering with education institutions, government agencies and technology partners to accelerate the adoption of digital learning solutions, strengthen digital literacy and equip learners with skills needed for an increasingly digital economy.
The launch forms part of Samsung’s “The Future of Learning Starts Here” campaign, which seeks to promote conversations around the future of education while showcasing how connected technologies can help build smarter, more inclusive and future-ready classrooms across Kenya.
