An Intel-funded computer classroom opened in Tibet, southwest China, Saturday to promote computer science in the autonomous region.

This is the 15th of its kind in China funded by Intel, the world's largest chip-maker, and Chinese computer manufacturers as well as public donations. It aims to popularize multi-media and network technologies among primary and middle school students.

Since the first Intel classroom was founded in 1997, over 750,000 students and teachers across the country have received computer science training. The classroom in Tibet is expected to help young people pick up basic computer skills.

Intel (China) also held a forum at Tibet University Saturday on digital and remote network education, attracting both teachers and students from schools of different levels.
