With the spread of COVID-19, distance learning has become an important alternative to in-person classroom teaching. ViewSonic® myViewBoard™ software helps to make this transition to distance learning a reality. From creating digital content and incorporating existing content, capturing lessons with video and engaging students with different learning styles, to organizing digital assignments, ViewSonic is providing training and resources on how myViewBoard education solutions help educators to efficiently deliver classroom interaction through digital learning.
ViewSonic myViewBoard™ software is a tool that enables teachers to build dynamic lesson plans, import engaging content, and share lessons with students. ViewSonic myViewBoard™ software works with Windows, Android or in the cloud with existing technology and seamlessly integrates into nearly any classroom. The myViewBoard™ ecosystem delivers a complete suite of tools that make content creation easy and intuitive. Teachers can quickly create lessons using familiar tools, allowing the presentation of content to focus on student needs. And because myViewBoard is based in the cloud, teachers can reach students whether they are in the classroom, at home, or in a quarantined location.
With myViewBoard™ digital whiteboard, educators can incorporate their existing content and additional content into their distance learning curriculum. Some of the easy-to-use tools in myViewBoard include a Windows Toggle Button, a Screenshot Button, Screen Recorder, Handwriting Recognition, a Save to Cloud Drive, in addition to both formal and informal assessment tools.
Video has become an integral component of the learning process. It brings content to life and gives subjective material a greater perspective. And because it helps teachers create more engaging lessons, video becomes that much more important for connecting with remote students via distance learning. An advantage to capturing video content is being able to save directly to the cloud drive as an MP4 file type.
Other features of myViewBoard include an online digital platform that provides a canvas for teachers to whiteboard and share content in addition to enabling feedback from students. There is also a Huddle Mode which fosters group work.
ViewSonic is currently offering myViewBoard for free to K12, colleges and universities in order to facilitate distance learning and help schools, educators, parents and students during the coronavirus outbreak.
