Why interactive display is so important and how to choose it

2018-03-02

The use of interactive and collaborative technologies in the classroom has become the most basic requirement for educating students to participate and succeed in the 21st century. Interactive displays represent a shift in the way students and teachers interact with information and interact with each other. Today, Interactive display technologies help teachers attract students’ attention and promote collaboration.

Why interactivity is so important??

Project-based teaching, collaboration and interactive technologies all contribute to practice and hands-on learning. The education community is rapidly adopting a constructivist approach to working with students to build connections and develop knowledge.

Teachers and managers are working hard to apply this knowledge to new classroom design practices, using flexible collaboration techniques to create spaces for active participation and meaningful learning. In these technologies, the front-end display plays a key role. More than just the high-tech counterparts of whiteboards, interactive displays bring many advanced advantages. Teachers say that increasing student attention and participation is the number one benefit of using interactive in-house technology to teach, and many educators believe that interactive displays in the classroom are very important or absolutely necessary.

What can interactive display do?

The interactive display is ideal for any type of classroom, lecture hall or distance learning environment, and its possible uses are almost endless.

  • Teacher guides to view websites, applications or videos
  • Screen highlighting and annotation
  • Save and Print Features
  • Promote team projects and personal demos
  • Collaborative environment
  • Video conference connection
  • Enter text/data via the floating screen keyboard
  • Screen editing and recording
  • Support effective special needs education and classroom differentiation
  • Use optional audience response accessories for student feedback and assessment

 

Types of interactive displays

Interactive whiteboards (IWB)has become the classroom standard. Today, large-format interactive flat panel (IFP) and interactive projection (IPJ) technologies provide another way to bring interactive displays to classrooms. Each method provides interactive functionality through different methods

Projector based IWB

The widely used interactive whiteboard system consists of a large display panel connected to a computer and a projector. The desktop of the computer is transmitted to the surface of the circuit board through the projector, and the user can control the computer with a pen, a finger or other devices. In this system, the interactive function is embedded in the display panel itself, but the content must be transmitted to the circuit board through the projector.

 

Interactive flat panel display

The large-size touch screen LED display provides a new alternative, expanding its advantages, reducing maintenance requirements and overall cost of ownership. With this option, the only component needed for full functionality is the LED display itself.

 

Interactive projector

Interactive technology embeds interactive technology that was previously only found in IWB. The interactive projector can convert almost any plane into a collaborative canvas. Users can write, draw and annotate directly on the projected image. This interactive display method requires only a projector, no special writing tools, and can use any available dry erase board, drop-down screen, blank wall, or other flat display surfaces.

BETT 2018 Interactive Education Solution Provider

2018-02-07

Since IQ has promoted the concept of the IQSchool Solution, we are desired to demonstrate this great solution to everyone who needs it in a more intuitive way. Therefore, on the occasion of BETT2018, we have furnished the booth to turn it into a demo campus and divided it into three display areas, including two demo classrooms and one main display area.

Classroom devices will be on the central control by IoT and also two classrooms could be synchronized for interactive learning, thats to say, visitors/students at different classrooms could interact and communicate with each other. Then as to the main display area, usually this area indicates the places beyond the classrooms on the campus. There we will make the audio&video broadcasting and devices management and control.

This time we also bring something new on the spot to cater to different demands. They are the control touch panel which could achieve audio interaction over IP at different places, and the video management platform with HD LCD screen. In addition, we have set up a special product display wall to show the core products of the IQSchool solution, including IQ Converged Station, Audio DSP, IQVideo Station and others.

Beyond the IQSchool Solution, we also introduce several new devices. The first one is the IQTouch C series, which has two models, one is for education purpose, the other corporation. They are designed to meet different demands from schools and companies.

The second one is the wireless microphone system, which could automatically match the frequency. There is no worries about lacking of the resources as every teacher has their own microphone. Then coming to the portable wireless speakers, its suitable for all types of outdoor activities. The intelligent voice recognition will help teachers and students get a better learning experience. The last one is the intelligent PA system. With the condenser microphone and smart PA playback, this device could allow teachers to free their hands, and students in any corner of the classroom can clearly listen to teachers.

 

Of course, we can not forget our old friends-IQView Interactive Document Camera E3511 and IQTouch J.

Except for a series of products mentioned above, IQ still hopes to provide teachers and students with a more vivid, flexible and interesting learning environment from all aspects of campus life by constantly developing new products.

IQ Education Solution for School and Classroom IQBoard

2018-01-17

We all know that hot topics about technology now are AI, VR, AR, MR, IoT, Cloud, etc.When talking about management, IoT, Cloud may come into our minds, and we have applied these concepts for homes, that’s our Intelligent Homes which provide life conveniences as most of us are familiar with. BUT how about we apply these to our schools? Homes give us comfort while children are our future. Yeah, we have now IQSchool solutions which integrate IoT, TCP/IP, and Cloud concepts, that’s our Intelligent Schools.And it will be the near future for schools.

I’d love to give introductions and roadmap of IQ who is spending tons of efforts on the IQSchool solutions.

Returnstar Interactive Technology Group Co., Ltd(Stock Code 836453), with IQBoard as the main brand, dedicated into educational industry since 2006. As time goes by, business solutions are taken into another developing direction. However, I??d like to talk more about our educational industry roadmap as for concerns of Intelligent Schools.

Generally speaking, we offer two solutions which are IQclass Solutions and?IQSchool Solutions.

With IQClass solutions assisting on the teaching for teachers and students, classes are turned out to be more interactivities and with more fun. While C/S(Client-server) based software IQClass takes care of before , during and after classes, which shows the core value of our educational software, to realize interactivity between teachers and students, education management, tests, tasks allocation and evaluation and others, B/S (Brower server) software IQClass+ makes online teaching possible, and the only thing you need is a networking cable. On the other hand, Returnstar has IQBoard as interactive whiteboard(IWB), interactive flat panel(IFP), document camera, laser projectors, etc.

Educational market mainstreams are small sizes IFP 55?? 65??75?? for classrooms available for less than 32 students and IWB+Laser projector solution but with bigger size for classrooms available for students above 32. Our latest product projected capacitive touch(PCT) could be taken into consideration for larger classrooms for 90 students with its 7 meters in width. In the market, share of IFP and IWB+Laser projector is around 50% versus 50%. The IWB+Laser projector will still be leading the bigger size market because of its size with more value, while small size IFP is in charge of the smaller size market. This will remain for a period of time. Returnstar offers competitive solutions in both markets with both quality and cost concerns.

Compared with IQClass solutions, IQSchool solutions are applying IoT and TCP/IP concepts which are the keywords for IT world. Administrators are able to get a better management of the school electric equipment. With help of the software and converged systems, all the devices can work automatically according to the schedule set up by administrators or principal, including A/V broadcasting simultaneously or separately, turning on or off when it??s necessary, and interacting with other classrooms. Even remote management and interacting are supported from overseas. Beta version of management software for mobile platform is available now. This will be the symbol of modern schools, smart schools in the near future. What??s more, our target is to achieve more functions for more customization demands from different schools with different characters. The connection with Facebook, Wechat, and other social media is on the developing list.

We look forward to the future that we can provide more and more help on learning and campus management for students, teachers, principals, ICT administrators, and parents. And we’d love to grow up with you together.
