Longhorn Publishers is thrilled to announce that we are embarking on an exciting journey into the digital content realm. This strategic move is in line with our commitment to improve the education sector in Kenya through adapting and embracing the ever changing and growing digital space to supplement our traditional focus on printed textbooks. This is in deed a pivotal step in our company.
At the heart of this new initiative lies the LoHo digital learning platform, a groundbreaking solution developed in collaboration with Safaricom PLC. This innovative platform is set to redefine the educational landscape in Kenya, seamlessly merging technology with the Kenyan Competency-Based Curriculum.
LoHo offers students unparalleled access to educational resources curated by our newly established subsidiary, LoHo Learning. Here’s a glimpse into how this revolutionary platform operates:
Safaricom will assemble custom learning tablets tailored specifically for students, pre-loaded with LoHo Learning content. These tablets will feature internet connectivity, meticulously filtered to ensure students only access educational materials, providing a safe online environment for learning. What’s more, families can acquire this comprehensive package, including the tablet and access to learning materials, through a convenient one-year installment plan, making it an affordable option for all.
But LoHo isn’t just about convenience; it’s about fostering innovation and empowerment within the educational landscape. By venturing into digital content creation, Longhorn provides a platform for educators and learning specialists to craft dynamic and engaging educational materials. This paves the way for a more enriching learning experience for Kenyan students, empowering them with the tools they need to excel.
The launch of the LoHo platform follows the recent approval from Longhorn shareholders to establish a digital venture studio in Kenya. This demonstrates our unwavering commitment to embracing the future of education and solidifying our position as trailblazers in the digital learning sphere.
With the introduction of the LoHo digital learning platform, Longhorn Publishers PLC is poised to revolutionize education delivery in Kenya, ensuring that every student has access to quality educational resources, regardless of their background. We are filled with optimism as we embark on this transformative journey towards a brighter future for education in Kenya and beyond.
