Interactive technologies to support each
and every school
The Promethean stand will feature
dedicated areas for three core Promethean
solutions. ActivPanel 9 Premium is
Promethean’s flagship interactive display
designed to meet the evolving needs of
teachers and IT managers, offering intuitive,
cutting-edge technology that enables a
seamless classroom experience. With its
easy and secure sign-in options, streamlined connection to content, flexible lesson
delivery software, and personalised user
experiences, ActivPanel 9 provides the tools
needed to transform how teachers use
technology.
On stand for the first time at Bett,
Promethean will also present ActivPanel
LX – a solution designed for schools seeking
simplicity, flexibility and value. ActivPanel
LX is a peripheral touchscreen which brings
connected devices to life through a large
interactive display. When combined with the
new OPS-A module, a Google EDLA-certified
device, it is transformed into a full-service
IFPD featuring Promethean’s classroom
essential apps and full access to the Google
Play Store. ActivPanel LX is designed to
fit easily into a school’s existing edtech
infrastructure, with simple connectivity
and compatibility supporting teaching and
learning.
Visitors to the Promethean stand at Bett
2023 may remember Explain Everything, a
cloud-based digital whiteboarding solution
which is now part of the Promethean family.
Explain Everything will be back on stand
at Bett 2024, where teachers can learn how
to create and deliver inspiring lessons
using the software. Explain Everything
brings popular tools together in one place,
championing ease of use for teachers
creating new classroom experiences.
What’s more, Promethean will give
exclusive insights into the Explain
Everything roadmap at Bett 2024, with
even more exciting and innovative features
still to come.
Higher education professionals will also
find a dedicated space on the Promethean
stand. Promethean’s Head of International
Education Strategy, Dr. John Collick, will
host an area which champions the use of
Promethean solutions in higher education
environments.
Speaker sessions from Promethean experts
Subject matter experts from the
Promethean team will deliver two key
speaker sessions at the event:
In the Sandbox area on Wednesday 24th
January, 12:00-12:55pm, Dr. John Collick
will present ‘How to integrate interactive
flat panel displays in higher education’.
This session, as part of the Ahead@Bett
agenda, will examine how interactive
flat panel displays can be used effectively
in higher education both on and off
campus. Specifically, the session will explore
how interactive displays support student
engagement, increase motivation and
facilitate improved campus communication.
Including a deep dive into ‘free form’
campus and laboratory learning, delegates
will leave armed with practical insights into
the role interactive displays have to play and
the importance of training.
Promethean will also host a ‘Tech in Action’
session on Thursday 25th January, 16:1516:35pm, with Janice Prandstatter and
Anastasia Procner, where teachers can find
out how to create media-packed lessons
to engage students like never before with
Explain Everything by Promethean. This
session will explore how to use the Explain
Everything digital whiteboard to develop
compelling lesson content, with a focus on
interactivity and creativity. A live
demonstration of the Explain Everything
platform will give attendees a practical
opportunity to get familiar with the
software and ask questions to Promethean
experts.
