ViewSonic Launches myViewBoard Virtual Classroom for Distance Learning

BREA, CA (March 31, 2020) – ViewSonic Corp., a leading global provider of visual solutions, announces myViewBoard™ Virtual Classroom – a virtual classroom solution that provides a secure, manageable, and engaging platform for teachers and students to teach and learn remotely. myViewBoard Virtual Classroom, a new service within the myViewBoard ecosystem, was designed to help more than 1.5 billion students who are currently at home struggling to adapt to a new learning environment.



The myViewBoard ecosystem delivers a complete suite of tools that make content creation easy and intuitive for educators. Now with the myViewBoard Virtual Classroom, teachers can video chat and share lessons with students. The new Virtual Classroom works with Google and Microsoft single sign-on, ensuring that remote lessons are only attended by those with permission to do so. Teachers retain control of students within the virtual classroom and can manage who and when students speak, and who may display their screens to the class. myViewBoard Virtual Classroom allows real-time annotation and quizzes; and its remote group work features are included to encourage and boost student engagement.

• One-way video streaming

• Two-way audio

• Ability for students to virtually raise their hands

• Screen recording to share lessons

 

“Distance learning is becoming the new normal. Therefore, we have made it our priority to assist educators struggling with the accelerated rate of EdTech adoption” said XXXX, XXX at ViewSonic. “Apart from the high learning curve of distance learning, some of the major concerns we have heard was the lack of student authentication, strain on bandwidth, and an uncertainty surrounding student engagement – we  have made it our mission to solve these issues.”

ViewSonic has been listening closely to educators, students, and parents on how to create a simple-to-use online solution that enables teachers to deliver meaningful lessons easily, while replicating the engagement of a physical in-classroom experience as much as possible.

myViewBoard Virtual Classroom is an opt-in service for the myViewBoard ecosystem that is currently being offered free of charge to teachers and schools affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. To find out more, please visit https://www.viewsonic.com/us/resources/distance-learning-overview
