'With a tablet I've been able to learn more,' says Honduran student who benefited from CABEI-funded program

Tegucigalpa, May 20th, 2022.- Kenssy Rivera is a ninth-grade student at the Instituto Técnico Honduras (ITH), a school that has benefited from more than 500 tablets from the "Program for the Integral Improvement of Educational Infrastructure and Training in Honduras (MIFE)" financed by the Central American Bank for Economic Integration (CABEI).

Since the beginning of the school year, Kenssy, like 2,000 other students at this academic center, has had access to a tablet for daily learning, with the support of 30 teachers. "For me it is a new experience because I had never used a tablet before and with it I have been able to learn more. At the beginning it was very difficult to do the exercises and now it is easier," said the 16-year-old girl while she was taking a math class.
