A healthy edtech ecosystem is one that\u2019s right-sized for your school and district, future-proofed for years to come, and tailored to the community of teachers, students and administrators who rely on it every day.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting there takes careful planning. That\u2019s why we created a comprehensive checklist you can use to evaluate any interactive smart panel\u2014and invest in a solution with confidence. Find an executive summary below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

6 key considerations for your edtech investment <\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

1. Fit for purpose<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

First things first: was the display specifically engineered for teaching? Better yet, was it designed by educators who understand student engagement from the inside out? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

2. Writing and touch experience <\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A natural writing and touch experience\u2014precise, lag-free, capable of distinguishing between finger, pen, stylus, and palm erase\u2014keeps the focus on content and collaboration. Settle for nothing less than pen-on-paper smooth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

3. Audiovisual quality  <\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Most large-format visuals can impress at a glance, but classroom screens must stand up to a closer look. Are the panel\u2019s display quality and speaker configuration geared for making lessons properly immersive? How does its touchscreen interface with the LED behind it? (The answer makes a difference in preventing glare.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

4. Personalization and security  <\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

At Promethean, we strive for edtech that is so intuitive, it can simply disappear. A securely personalized experience makes this possible. User preferences and data should exist off the panel, in a cloud-based profile. Expect a natural, familiar, customized environment to become available the moment a display is switched on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

 5. Computing and connectivity  <\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Flawless interaction with multiple devices, easy screen sharing, seamless integration with essential apps and platforms, and sheer processing power\u2014in assessing panel performance, computing and connectivity are where the rubber meets the road. See our complete checklist<\/strong> for specific watch outs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

6. Warranty, support, and training   <\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We believe that edtech has the power to change lives, giving every student a chance to let their brilliance shine. That\u2019s why partnership is a touchstone for our list. From options for extended warranty coverage and the availability of 24\/7 support, to strategic, teacher-led professional development, seek out a solution provider for whom hardware and software are just the start of an accountable and lasting relationship. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As this quick look at our checklist shows\u2014we didn\u2019t even get to maintenance and accessories\u2014when it comes to evaluating interactive panels, details truly make the difference. Now that classrooms are expected to be flexible, adaptable, and resilient in the face of constant change, demanding excellence from edtech matters more than ever. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
