Xcelus in Zambia/Africa
24 Samsung tablets ready for mobile learning in the Western Province in Zambia.

Each tablet is pre-loaded with a set of English and Lozi training videos. Tablets are easily updated via the Internet or with a micro SD card.
The training app developed by Xcelus has a simple touch navigation to access the training videos.
