Free Learning Software For JPay Tablets

JPay is now offering free learning software for owners of JPay tablets.
Learning Equality can be accessed by JPay’s KA Lite, an open source offline software pipeline to correctional facilities. San Quentin inmates currently can buy tablets that allow them to read books and play games, but cannot access JPay’s pipeline.
Prisoners with pipeline access can search and download thousands of instructional and educational videos free, JPay reported in a Feb. 24 news release. Facility-approved content is part of JPay’s education initiative, led by Lantern, the JPay-built education platform.
“We designed KA Lite for anyone who lacks access to high-quality education resources, including inmates who might benefit the most from what we regard as a universal right,” said Elizabeth Vu of Learning Equality.
More than 325,000 KA Lite videos have been downloaded at 50 facilities, the company reported. Inmates download content onto their JPay tablets, and are able to learn at their own pace and on their own time.
“KA Lite’s unique offline model gives facilities the peace of mind of security and provides inmates with educational resources that were previously inaccessible. The goal is to reduce recidivism; education can do that,” reported JPay CEO Ryan Sapiro.
JPay services and products include money transfer, tablets, email, video communication, education, games and music.
