In this new age of learning, teachers have requested a cloud-based whiteboard that brings to students an inspiring and collaborative classroom experience, whether they be at home or on campus.

Requests from the classroom coalface have not been ignored, they’ve been harnessed and used to drive BenQ’s quest to develop a range of whiteboarding technology and interactive flat panels that respond directly to the needs of teachers and students.

Interactive flat panels with a difference

Beyond impressive software functions that allow teachers to really immerse children in a lesson, BenQ’s RM03 Interactive Flat Panels and linked pens come equipped with leading ClassroomCare® technologies. What does this mean?

For starters, all interactive displays feature germ-resistant screens that kill 99.9 per cent of common germs after contact, thanks to a nano-ionic silver formula – a coating that remains effective even after thorough cleaning or long periods of use.

That’s right, these flat panels work to reduce the transmission of infectious diseases in the classroom, keeping learners learning and teachers teaching as the global pandemic rolls on.

Also designed with teacher and student eye comfort in mind, BenQ displays come with low blue light and flicker-free technology for reduced eye strain and a comfortable viewing experience. Anti-glare screens ensure that content displayed can be seen clearly, even on hybrid and remote calls.

A limitless canvas for learning

Doing away with the usual barriers cloud-based whiteboards can present to collaborative teaching and learning, BenQ’s newly redesigned EZWrite 6 is tailor-made for educators and opens up a whole new realm of classroom experience.

Acting as a large, infinite canvas for discussions and shared lesson materials, this new generation of cloud whiteboard software offers teachers a plethora of new powers.

Fully editable canvas files mean learning templates can be creatively crafted ahead of class, with drag and drop manipulative activities and pre-set lesson plans making the process a seamless one.

Naturally, teachers can load, edit and save lesson materials on any interactive display or personal device. Happily, using EZWrite 6, lessons look the same on an interactive display, notebook, tablet or phone, so you can focus on the learning underway and not waste time sorting out clunky software issues.

Thanks to a handy individual permissions function, teachers also have the ability to control who contributes and when.

EZWrite 6 gives not only a consistent and intuitive user experience in the classroom, but also hands teachers the tools to easily inject life and visual energy into their lessons.

Make use of a huge range of pens and highlighters, plus customisable colour palettes to create certain moods and draw attention to specific points.

Teachers can also import images, files, charts and diagrams to showcase or illustrate data. Objects can be changed in the way they overlap, while an eraser tool facilitates the quick editing of your work. None of this is possible with a traditional whiteboard.

Intent on breaking down boundaries, quite literally, think of BenQ’s EZWrite 6 as a large canvas for team discussion. This pioneering whiteboard offers more space for teams to share, nut out, and compare ideas.

If space dries up, simply zoom out or create another page. There are no limits to collaborative conversation!

Wireless screen sharing gets better

Have you met InstaShare 2, the latest in wireless screen sharing technology? Allow us to introduce you to your new best friend for winning presentations, be they in the staffroom or the classroom.

With innovative wireless projection that allows up to four people to share their screens simultaneously and present, InstaShare 2 pairs with individual Windows and Mac devices from students and teachers to allow for a heightened screen sharing experience.

InstaShare 2 lets students simultaneously cast their device screens onto the interactive display, enabling them to wirelessly present their ideas in class without the hassle of cables.

With the option to annotate over your lesson at any time, InstaShare 2 is a useful tool for teachers looking to dive into complex concepts and magnify crucial information.

Concerned there will be too many focal points? This technology gives you control over how many and which screens are shared at any given time. When you need the room focused on only one presenter, simply activate ‘Do Not Disturb mode’ to temporarily disable incoming presentation requests.

Welcome to a new generation of classroom teaching!
