ViewSonic Corp., a global provider of visual solutions, is offering schools free subscriptions to its myViewBoard software through September 30, 2020.
With the spread of COVID-19 (coronavirus), many schools and universities are not only preparing for extended school shutdowns, but educators are urgently exploring the possibilities of distance learning. To support distance learning, ViewSonic is offering its Premium tier of myViewBoard software free to schools and educators.
“As a stakeholder in the education sector, we wanted to make sure were doing our part in supporting schools, educators, students and parents in this very trying time, especially those without access to distance learning,” says James Chu, CEO of ViewSonic.
“While some schools with pre-existing capabilities have already implemented distance learning during school closures, many more have been caught off guard by the coronavirus and have ceased all in-person classes.”
ViewSonic explains that myViewBoard enables teachers to conduct distance learning through an open and agnostic platform, facilitating learning outcomes wherever students happen to be. It is easy to use and allows real-time collaboration through video conferencing, huddles, and digital whiteboarding, and supports a variety of pedagogies with an emphasis on virtual classroom. Through its inclusive features, myViewBoard helps create a virtual learning environment that is engaging, interactive, and effective.
