Ang mga kagamitan na ito ay makatutulong upang mapagpatuloy nila ang kanilang mga pag-aaral at magkaroon ng lakas ng loob na matuto sa gitna ng pandemya. 

Ayon kay Dominic Divina, mag-aaral ng RNHS, maganda ang naging epekto nito sa mga mag aaral hindi lang dahil may mga bagong kagamitan, na engganyo rin ang mga bata sa pag pasok ng paaralan.
