The Challenge
The Unity Education Trust schools needed to refresh their fleet of interactive whiteboards, which due to their age no longer met their modern educational needs. Teachers moving from school to school, found they were unable to access their teaching materials, access apps, or easily access electronic files they needed to teach in a modern environment.
Another problem they faced was maintaining knowledge of how to use each of the whiteboards, which made up the group as there was a mix of different boards from various manufacturers with different operating instructions.
The Solution
To resolve this issue for Unity Education Trust schools InTouch Systems installed Clevertouch. These interactive touch screens came with a software called CleverLive, the benefits meant staff could work seamlessly in every school.
The benefits:
Accessing files
Accessing Apps
Lesson plans
No need for training on all the kinds of interactive whiteboards
More apps available that increase student engagement
Unlimited users
All these features create consistency between all the schools and a more effective learning/working environment. InTouch Systems also offered all staff free training as part of the package, which meant staff knew exactly how to use the whiteboards and software from day one.
