How do Interactive Displays work in the classroom?
The possibilities are enormous! You can use interactive displays to present fresh and engaging documents, videos or information to a group / class of students. The touch screen panel encourages collaboration as you can invite students to contribute either directly on the screen, or via a connected device. Being able to work on an interactive screen also enables you to quickly save and redistribute tasks that you have done as a class on the display. This is also great for sending work over to students if they are absent and missed the original class. Using a display is also a great way to promote inclusivity in the classroom. All children work and learn in different ways. By providing the children with the opportunity to participate in a number of different ways, either via a connected device, on the screen directly or by calling out for the teacher to annotate you can be sure that students feel confident and comfortable about interacting in lessons.
How do you pick the right Interactive Display for your classroom?
There is a vast selection of brands and styles to choose from before committing to an interactive display it is important to consider a number of factors:
- How big do you need your screen to be? - Be sure to measure out how much space you have and pick a screen big enough that is can be easily viewed from all angles in the classroom
- How will the screen be installed? - Are your on site facilities team able to install it? If not you may need to look into hiring an external company to come in and manage the installation. If you’re struggling to find anybody please contact us and we can pass on the details of installation specialists near you.
- How much training will be required for staff to be able to confidently use the screen? - The good news is that displays work in a similar way to most smartphones or tablets that are in everyday use so you should be able to quickly pick up the fundamentals. To really get the most out of the collaboration aspect of the screen you may have to also implement a wireless conferencing system like ScreenBeam. For this it may be worth working with your IT team or appointing a teacher to be the specialist to devise a training program for all colleagues.
- Will you require any additional hardware / software to work with your interactive display? There are a host of additional options you can use with your screen, whether it be different types or software i.e. photo or movie editors or even whether you want a plug-in computer installed to simplify using the screen as much as possible. Will the display be wall mounted? If so, which brackets do you require? If not then which stand do you want to use?
