ViewSonic manufactures interactive whiteboards that are being rolled out as a replacement for projectors as part of our A/V Refresh project. While it will take time for the hardware to be replaced, the Viewboard software is available to all staff now. Existing SMART files can be converted to work with the MyViewboard Software as well.  Much of the software can be used without the interactive TV by utilizing Chromebooks or another computer. The Viewboard platform includes a variety of programs that can do different things depending on your instructional goals. These include:

• Display: wirelessly share a screen from anywhere

• Clips: view curated educational videos and clips

• Classroom: share a virtual whiteboard, record lessons, and allow student participation in full class or breakout groups

• Whiteboard: interactive whiteboard for sharing content and getting student feedback. Available as standalone app on board, Chromebook app, or a full featured Windows PC App (Reccomended) 

• Companion: a useful app for controlling presentations and making logins easy

• Record/Live: record or livestream a class or demonstration from the board (requires a microphone near the speaker)
