Classroom Giveaway 2017

Calling all schools—Our Extreme Classroom Tech Makeover is back!

Acer is offering K-12 schools across the country a chance to transform their classroom with the gift of tech.

Education is enhanced by immersive technology that not only engages students, but challenges them to think critically and ask questions. That being said, educators often find themselves spending their own money to improve their classroom experience. Acer wants to help! One lucky classroom will receive TravelMate B117 laptops—a powerful tool for students in the classroom and beyond.

Acer has partnered with education influencer and #EdChat founder, Steven Anderson to get the word out about this amazing makeover. Steven, along with a panel of industry experts, will help decide the winner.

What makes your classroom unique? What would a classroom full of devices mean to your school? We want to hear from you!

We encourage educators, students, administrators and parents to submit their stories through video, images or text. Tell us what this makeover would mean for your school and how these devices would help your students get excited about learning.
