Earn points for a cause

Aside from learning, students may also participate in the activities in every episode to earn and accumulate points to be part of the Smart University Leaderboard.

Upon reaching 30,000 points at the end of the third episode, the whole class will be able to donate 3 School-in-a-Bag units, which each consists of 1 laptop, 1 Pocket WiFi and 20 tablets to PLDT-Smart Foundation’s beneficiary schools. This way, participants are empowered to uplift and help the less fortunate students. Special prizes await class topnotchers, too!

The Smart University Virtual Campus 2020 is in line with the thrust of the mobile services provider to champion the youth — from helping bridge the learning gap the new normal has brought to aiding students with the knowledge and tools to realize their academic potentials. Recently, Smart introduced Giga Study, a data pack that enables subscribers to access a host of learning and productivity apps. Smart has also partnered with Edukasyon.PH, an education technology start-up that provides a series of programs and software apps to enable Filipino students reach their academic goals.
