64-bit app support. As of Aug 2021 – All new apps and any updates to current apps on the Google Play Store must support 64-bit versions, with 64-bit only mobile devices likely to enter the market in 2023. With 64-bit apps, you can access more memory more effectively. This will provide better and more stable app performance as well.
Greater longevity. Automatic over-the-air updates for your system's software are crucial to extending the life of interactive displays. SMART hardware is built to last and we consistently update our software to keep up. Rather than suffering from planned obsolescence, over-the-air updates make sure you maximize your display's full lifespan instead of sending it to the landfill early. Rather than replacing your existing hardware tech, over-the-air updates enable you to spend your EdTech budget on what matters.
Leading the way with student device integration
Screen mirroring is a fabulous way for students to participate in learning and sharing but is it really robust enough for active classrooms? The latest edition of the iQ whiteboard offers engaging collaboration features to support better interaction and student engagement. iQ 3.12 adds content attribution to the collaborative whiteboard so teachers can see what individual students add and edit using ink and text; a great way to check on and evaluate student participation.
Encourage every student to participate with iQ 3.12. We’ve made it easier for teachers to connect students to their learning in any network environment, whether they’re in the class or at home. ?
Robust student collaboration tools. Connect student devices to support active learning in only two clicks. Only SMART displays with iQ allow an entire class to work directly in the embedded whiteboard - without student logins - so teachers don’t need to interrupt the lesson to get students signed into a separate tool. ?
Less time wasted in the classroom. Without the need for individual student logins, teachers can focus on what really matters in a lesson; learning! Teachers are able to move seamlessly between tools without separate student logins.
Attribute student work in collaborative exercises. Easily see which students added and edited content in a collaborative whiteboard for greater insight to learning. (New in iQ 3.12) ?
