Activboard

Bring Your Teaching to Life

Our interactive whiteboard was designed by teachers, for teachers and as a result it's brought the learning experience to life. Made with a solid screen, Activboard is resilent as it is durable. It will happily cope with variable temperatures, so an uncooled classroom over the long summer holidays won't impact on its excellent performance.

Integral to the Activboard is our specially designed electromagnetic grid, which will remain unaffected by any screen surface damage. The grid ensures incredible accuracy, with on-screen tools such as protractors, can measure down to a single degree. Activboard comes complete with two Activpens, that write exactly like pens with the added functionality of a mouse.

Activboard+2

Our new all-in-one teaching solution!

Activboard+2 is the world's best integrated whiteboard system. That's what we set out to design. Based on the feedback of channel partners, teachers and other whiteboard users, Activboard+2 offers the best of all worlds: height adjustability, minimal shadowing, maximum security and minimal installation time.

At its heart is our robust Activboard supplied with a choice of award winning software (Activprimary or Activstudio). Then there's the specially designed super short-throw XE40 projector exclusively supplied from Sanyo for Activboard+2. Positioned just one metre away from the Activboard, it virtually eliminates shadowing and enhances teacher comfort. It also delivers maximum peace of mind, with a host of security features.

Activboard+2 comes with a height adjustable stand that allows full use of the Activboard by the tallest, smallest or disabled user - it's truly inclusive.

Activote

Give Your Pupils and Students a Voice

Activote is Promethean's integrated personal response system that is designed to encourage whole class participation and enhance learning. By enabling each pupil to "have a voice", the opinions, thought processes or feelings of a whole class can instantly be shared and addressed accordingly.

This could be as straight forward as determining whether pupils are following a lesson, or it could be the basis for planned discussion. And it's all done by asking students to make a choice and click a button. Capturing student responses when they are questioned can be a powerful tool in influencing the direction of a lesson or the planning of future work. Activote allows the answers of each pupil to be saved for retrieval later - individually or as a class. Results can also be exported to Excel for record keeping and further analysis where appropriate.

Deliberately simple to use (so that the technology doesn't interfere with the Teaching and Learning), the system is equally effective in the Foundation Stage as it is within Higher Education. Although lower-case lettered handsets are available for younger children, age differentiation is made mainly through the choice of either piece of Promethean's award-winning software (Activprimary or Activstudio).

Enriching learning in this way is available to everyone as Activote works with any interactive whiteboard. It also has the ability to work independently of an interactive whiteboard, making it a mobile solution too. Communicating through radio technology eliminates the need for students to point devices in order to cast their vote.

Flexibility is key in any learning environment hence why Activote can be used is several ways. Integrated into Promethean's software it can be used ad-hoc, allowing teachers to ask unplanned questions as they occur. However, it also works effortlessly over any application or website. Similarly, teachers can choose between using the supplied pre-prepared content and easily making their own with the aid of the inbuilt Question Master Wizard.

SMART Board 600

Succeed with Active Learning

The SMART Board interactive whiteboard has a large, interactive screen on which you and your students can explore a website, give a science presentation or take a virtual field trip. It helps you improve student motivation and performance by making inquiry-based learning a dynamic classroom experience.

The key to this experience is touch. You simply touch the surface to select menus and icons. To write notes, pick up a pen and write with either the pen or your finger. You don’t need batteries or special tools that fail or go missing.

Reach all students

The SMART Board interactive whiteboard meets the needs of both visual and kinesthetic learners. Students see large, vibrant images and physically interact with material by moving letters, numbers, words and pictures with their fingers. Students with special needs can see, read and manipulate information more easily.

Give dynamic whole-class instruction

With the interactive whiteboard, you have powerful preparation tools and a central focus in class. Before you teach, you can plan lessons at your desktop. The whiteboarding software includes curriculum-specific clip art and templates that support maths, literacy and science. You can build a lesson on graph paper, a music sheet or a map of Africa. In the class, you can involve students, add notes and save all information, every step of the way. With the SMART Board interactive whiteboard, you’ll save time and increase success – for every one of your students.

SMART Board 600i

With the SMART Board 600i interactive whiteboard system, the simple push of a button puts you in control of a powerful multimedia environment.

It's never been easier or more convenient to use interactive technology to make corporate presentations more memorable and classroom learning more engaging.

The all-in-one design brings an interactive whiteboard, projector and audio system together. It also addresses all of your technology needs by acting as a central hub for other audiovisual devices. Simply plug a VCR, DVD player or document camera into the extended connection panel and switch between them using the interactive whiteboard's on-screen menu.

Dynamic learning and effective collaboration are literally at your fingertips.
