What challenges did UCM face in providing laptops for remote learning?
UCM faced challenges in ensuring that students had access to reliable computers for remote learning. Many students did not have a computer at home, and those who did often shared it with family members, making it difficult to access virtual classes. The university needed laptops that could run various educational software while being lightweight and dependable.
How did UCM select students for laptop distribution?
UCM selected students based on their academic performance and effort. The university aimed to reward high-achieving students by providing them with laptops that would support their studies, particularly for those in their third, fourth, and fifth years.
What were the results of deploying AMD Ryzen-powered laptops?
After deploying 500 HP laptops powered by AMD Ryzen processors, UCM reported total reliability and strong performance for educational software. They received no complaints about the laptops after nearly a year of use, and students found the machines to be effective for running applications like Microsoft Teams and Autodesk AutoCAD, with performance improvements noted in loading times and application speed.
