“It’s an honor to be recognized by ComputED Gazette and EdTech Digest,” said Ravi Angadi, Chief Products Officer at Promethean. “Promethean has been a pioneer in the K-12 EdTech space for over 20 years, and we find success by creating strong platforms with tools that empower teachers in the classroom. We are planning even more features and improvements for our world-class lesson delivery platforms ActivInspire and Classflow, as well as for our interactive panels in 2018.”
ActivPanel continues to offer the best natural writing experience in any classroom worldwide, driving increased student engagement and confidence at the front of the class. While other companies focus on touch technology, Promethean’s products incorporate unique technologies that allow for natural handwriting and detect fine details that are often required in math equations, diagramming, or writing. ActivPanel also automatically detects differences between pen, touch, and palm erase so teachers can focus on lessons and students rather than technology.
