QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE

PRESENTATION

• Tablets and Education: a new learning paradigm

Adapted for each user’s requirements

• Tablet out of school: a tool for self-learning• Opposed to other educational tablets (like Nabi 2), it is an open

system

PRESENTATIONMILAN has achieved the perfect combination:

+• Sets the foundations for a learning process, where learning is something fun.

• The recommended APPs have an educational value. Not only they are fun, but also they teach.

PRESENTATION

• What is MILAN Playground?• It’s a educational applications recommender for kids. A recommender is an

information filter based on the preferences of a specific user, so the information displayed changes based on who uses.• MILAN Playground has a directory containing dozens of handpicked applications

reviewed, scored and categorized through ten different categories..• MILAN Playground suggests the applications based on filters such as the user’s age or

their educational value.• It’s an interactive environment, where the available applications are

restricted for the kids, based on the parents’ preferences.• The parents can choose which applications are available for their children.• It is a dynamic environment, where the desktop itself where the applications are

launched, is an interactive environment.

PRESENTATION

• What is not MILAN Playground?• MILAN Playground is not an application provider, it only displays an organized

directory that recommends applications available for installation through Google’s service, Google Play Store.• MILAN Playground is not a security system for fully restricting the access to

the applications. The interactive environment restricts only the applications that can be launched from there, but once the user exits this environment, all the applications are available for execution as a standard Android tablet.
