Case Study: SMPN 12 Satarmese boosts student attendance and engagement with Google for Education

How SMPN 12 Satarmese keeps students excited to learn with Google for Education

SMPN 12 Satarmese, a public middle school in rural East Nusa Tenggara, struggled to keep students learning during distance education because teachers had limited technology experience and students had difficulty accessing lessons without traveling long distances for photocopied materials. With support from Google for Education, the school began using Chromebooks, Google Workspace for Education, and Google Classroom to improve access and communication.

Google for Education helped the school train teachers, activate nearly 400 belajar.id accounts, and introduce blended learning with tools like Google Classroom, Google Chat, Google Meet, and Jamboard. The result was a more engaging learning experience, stronger student-teacher interaction, and increased student motivation, leading to a 40% rise in attendance.
