Bing is headed to the classroom in a more targeted form, with Redmond announcing this morning a new version of the engine dubbed "Bing for Schools." The initiative takes the standard Bing search engine and cuts all adverts in search, filters "adult content" (the specifications of that are murky) adds more privacy protection, and adds "specialized learning features to enhance digital literacy." Schools can opt in on a per-case basis, and if they do, that will enable the specialized version of Bing on an entire school's network. The program's kicking off "later this year," and interested parties can put their name in the hat right here. Should you like to see the full note introducing Bing for Schools from Microsoft's Bing Behavioral Scientist Matt Wallaert, we've dropped it just beyond the break.
