Who knew Zoom was going to be the new normal? Now your trusted SMART Board can help you keep your students engaged, whether they're in classroom, remote, or both!

What’s shorter than a student’s attention span in the classroom?
A student’s attention span while learning remotely. 😥
Students retain more from witnessing teaching in real-time
Distractions, device scheduling and sharing conflicts… the list is endless and the odds stacked against holding student attention in a remote learning environment.
With Zoom video conferencing on your SMART Board, remote students can tune into screen sharing alongside live video of their teacher delivering the lesson.
So no matter where they are, students can watch their teachers teach, including live annotating and whiteboarding.
Miss being in front of your students?
Keep the focus on learning and familiarity. Students can see you up at the familiar SMART Board and keep the continuity of a classroom experience remotely to better learn and retain information. Attention is captured and imagination fires.

With classrooms looking different these days, it can be challenging to build connections with students you’ve never seen. Connect across any distance with video conferencing for truly engaging learning experiences.
All-inclusive learning
Whether remote or in class, teachers and students can interact easily with one another via a larger, high-res video gallery.
