La Salle Green Hills, a premier learning institution in the Philippines catering to 5,000 plus pupils, plans to deploy an initial 500 of the new Galaxy Tab 8.9 devices to its honors class students. The pilot phase of the project will commence with the start of the second trimester of the 2011-12 schoolyear in September 2011.
La Salle Green Hills expects to roll out the mobile tablet learning experience schoolwide in the new school year of 2012-13.“

The school hopes this innovation will foster the creation of new learning systems and methods,” said La Salle Green Hills president, Bro. Felipe Belleza, FSC.
