Interactive technology has rapidly become a cornerstone in modern education, and at Manteno High School, ViewBoards are leading the charge in revolutionizing how students and teachers engage with lessons. While traditional projectors once dominated classrooms, many schools are now shifting toward more interactive solutions like ViewBoards. These advanced displays offer enhanced visual clarity, interactivity, and connectivity, providing a stark contrast to older projector-based systems.

ViewBoards are designed to foster a more engaging learning environment. Unlike projectors, which require dim lighting and have limited interactivity, ViewBoards offer crystal-clear displays in any light condition, making it easier for students to stay focused on lessons. They also come equipped with touchscreen functionality, enabling teachers and students to interact directly with the content displayed. This creates a dynamic, hands-on learning experience that wasn’t possible with traditional projectors.

Julie Mead, an English teacher at Manteno High School with over 10 years of experience, has witnessed firsthand the evolution from projectors to ViewBoards in her classroom. “The transition to ViewBoards has made a significant impact on how we teach,” Mead said. “Our students are much more engaged when they can physically interact with the material, whether it’s dragging and dropping elements or writing on the screen. It’s far more interactive than just projecting images onto a wall.” 

In addition to their interactive features, ViewBoards are also easier to maintain and integrate with modern educational software. Many schools that have adopted ViewBoards have reported increased efficiency in lesson delivery and collaboration among students. In contrast, projectors often suffer from issues like bulb burnouts, requiring frequent maintenance and downtime.

ViewBoards also offer compatibility with cloud-based resources, which are increasingly being used in classrooms for real-time collaboration and content sharing. Teachers can access lesson plans, videos, and interactive activities directly from the board, streamlining the teaching process.

As more schools like Manteno High School continue to adopt ViewBoards, the benefits over traditional projectors are becoming increasingly clear. The interactive nature, ease of use, and superior display quality make ViewBoards a valuable tool for today’s educators and students alike.
