Today, Samsung and Boxlight Corporation a leading provider of interactive technology solutions<strong>, <\/strong>are coming together for a panel discussion aimed at helping school districts across the country address the challenge of finding the right technology that not only works with existing infrastructure, but is also easy for educators to learn and use on a daily basis.<\/p>\n<p>Hybrid learning is an adaptable and flexible approach that gives teachers engaging, multifunction display tools for their classroom. The holistic solution developed by Samsung and Boxlight help bridge the gap between in-person and online learning through interactive displays and educational software platforms specifically designed to help students meet their educational goals.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe education environment is changing rapidly and the demand for digital solutions are at an all-time high as districts across the country address teaching during a global pandemic,\u201d <strong>says Chris Mertens, Vice President of US Sales, Displays, Samsung Electronics Americ<\/strong>a. \u201cTo address the challenges educators are facing, Samsung offers a complete ecosystem of products and solutions. From interactive, large format displays to outdoor LED, tablets and monitors, Samsung is dedicated to investing in the future of education. We are proud to work with partners like Boxlight to give schools technology that works for them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen schools went remote this spring, we saw an opportunity to use technology to change the way students learn,\u201d <strong>says Mark Quiroz, Vice President of Marketing, Display Division, Samsung Electronics America<\/strong>. \u201cNo matter the setting, the four main functions of the classroom remain the same: lesson planning, teaching, assessments, and sharing. Samsung\u2019s interactive display technology coupled with Boxlight\u2019s tailored solutions give teachers a way to connect with their students ensuring no child is left behind.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"embedded recommended recommended-post\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"embedded-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"card-badge\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Recommended News<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"recommended-card\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/news.samsung.com\/us\/samsung-85-inch-interactive-largest-display-designed-to-accelerate-transformative-learning-collaboration\/\" class=\"recommended-news\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.us.news.samsung.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/22000054\/Samsung-Interactive-Display-Flip-WM85R-Education-Classroom.jpg\" alt=\"New Samsung 85-inch Interactive Display Designed To Accelerate Transformative Learning and Collaboration\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"details\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"details-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"post-category\">Enterprise<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4>New Samsung 85-inch Interactive Display Designed To Accelerate Transformative Learning and Collaboration<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"article-content\">\n\t\t<div class=\"article-body\">\n<h3><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><strong>Interactive Tools that Teach<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Samsung\u2019s new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.samsung.com\/us\/business\/products\/displays\/interactive\/wm-series\/samsung-interactive-display-85-lh85wmrwlgcxza\/?cid=com-btb-sky-blg-us-other-na-100219-112001-na-na-na\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">85-inch Interactive Display<\/a> visually commands the learning space with its wall-filling canvas and 4K UHD resolution. Built for engaging and collaborative learning, the enormous display offers easy annotation and screen mirroring built in. \u00a0It can also manage as many as 20 simultaneous touch points when a group of students is hard at work.<\/p>\n<p>The display features an onboard, embedded computer for handling most teaching and interactive tasks. And in demanding circumstances that require more computing power than what\u2019s already onboard, you can use the screen\u2019s Open Pluggable Specification (OPS) slot (in the rear of the display) that can connect to a compatible external PC.<\/p>\n<p>Content creation and sharing are also quick and easy. Beyond serving as a digital collaboration tool, the massive 85-inch screen can function as a multimedia canvas, displaying student\u2019s artwork or visuals of class projects which can then be saved, revisited, and shared. Further, notes and other class materials can be stored and shared to individual students or groups right from the display.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><strong>Connected Classrooms<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Boxlight\u2019s Blended Learning Platform <a href=\"https:\/\/mimio.boxlight.com\/mimioconnect\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MimioConnect<\/a> creates continuous and seamless learning experiences from anywhere combining innovative lesson building and instructional tools to create an active learning environment, working seamlessly with Samsung\u2019s range of school-focused displays.<\/p>\n<p>In blended learning environments, MimioConnect enables:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Real-time collaboration between teachers and students on the same document, regardless of location<\/li>\n<li>Assignments that can be pushed to students in the classroom or at home with a single click<\/li>\n<li>Videoconferencing for face-to-face discussions \u2013 building stronger relationships in hybrid classes<\/li>\n<li>Engaging learning using tools like polling and interactive questions<\/li>\n<li>Analytics on student understanding, using assignment data including overall scores and time spent on tasks<\/li>\n<li>Supplement current instruction with lessons developed with critical learning objectives as a foundation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>When lessons are presented live, MimioConnect allows students to follow along on their devices while in the classroom and while they\u2019re at home.
