Microsoft Classroom Pen 2 has been introduced as the successor to the original Classroom Pen launched in 2019. It is a digital pen that has been optimised to use with the Microsoft Surface Go and Surface Pro laptops and, as the name suggests, it is targeted towards students. The company has not mentioned if, like its predecessor, the new digital pen can be used with other, non-Surface Windows laptops that support Microsoft Pen Protocol (MPP). Microsoft says that it's pushing towards a digital ink future and has cited studies that show that an average school uses about 50 reams of paper, which is about 2.5 trees per teacher for a 100-teacher school every year.
