Interactive Whiteboards

Interactive whiteboards have become the focal point of a modern classroom with teachers across the board using them daily. Standard lessons can be turned into interactive activities and teachers can integrate all learning styles in one using various media types. Interactive whiteboards like Newline interactive whiteboards are replacing overhead projectors in classrooms across the UK.

Newline is a manufacturer of interactive displays designed specifically for encouraging creativity and participation in schools and higher education. More than one student can interact at the same time on the large display using Newline’s multi-touch feature. This can be done without lags with their fingers or a stylus depending on their preference.

Videos, books, interactive presentations and educational games are just some of the programmes that can be used on the Newline interactive whiteboards and being non-proprietary, teachers and students can install all their favourite software, use the windows interface, open office files or use any of the plethora of digital resources available for education.

For schools not yet ready to take the plunge into purchasing interactive whiteboards or for classrooms that simply don’t have the infrastructure to support them, Kaptivo converts a standard whiteboard into a digital one. Using a wall mount camera that attaches to the top of any whiteboard, Kaptivo streams the content on the whiteboard live, enhancing images to remove glare and removing any reflections in real time.

If wireless technology is required, Actiontec uses the capabilities of windows 10 to connect students and teachers wirelessly with screen sharing and a fully functional whiteboard. Students no longer need to share the same interactive whiteboard to collaborate, they can participate in group work and lessons using a wirelessly connected device in front of them.
