COSTA MESA, Calif. — June 20, 2024 — BenQ, an internationally renowned provider of visual display and collaboration solutions, today announced Lingokids is now available on BenQ Boards. Lingokids is an educational tech and media company that is helping transform the way children can gain traditional educational and modern life skills. Its unique PlaylearningTM approach puts children in the center of the Lingokids universe, which provides thousands of engaging, interactive learning experiences in a variety of mediums and surrounds them with choice and exploratory child-led learning paths. This partnership is part of BenQ's continuous commitment to providing direct access to a growing portfolio of apps and learning software that educators use daily from their BenQ Boards for a more streamlined, future-ready classroom.
“Teachers need streamlined tools and resources to make the greatest impact for individualized learning, which is at the core of our BenQ Boards," said Carly Burton-Sallay, senior marketing manager at BenQ Education. "Lingokids provides countless options for creating a fun and exciting learning experience that can now be offered on their BenQ Boards, unlocking a new level of engagement for the whole classroom. With this partnership, educators have more flexibility than ever before when accessing Lingokids, so they can teach their way."
The BenQ Boards are purpose-built for teachers so that they can provide exciting learning opportunities from the moment they sign on. Encouraging active participation in class while protecting student and teacher health, the germ-resistant BenQ Boards boast BenQ’s Tap 'N Teach technology, which features one-tap NFC log-in to load lesson materials and interactive teaching apps, cloud storage, settings, and tools instantly and securely. The smart boards also feature a germ-resistant screen, pen, and remote; split windows for multitasking; array microphones; 16W speakers with 16W Dolby Digital Plus surround sound; InstaShare wireless screen sharing; new Eyesafe® technology for reducing blue light emissions; and more.
“We are incredibly excited to bring Lingokids to the BenQ Boards platform natively,” said Vicenç Ferrer, senior strategic partnerships manager at Lingokids. “At the heart of Lingokids is providing teachers with an engaging product suite that features superior-quality educational activities and content so early learners can thrive. By partnering with BenQ Education, we’re able to bring greater ease for accessing and sharing our content with students.”
Teachers can use their BenQ Board as a whiteboard, display, computer, and wireless screen-sharing system, thanks to BenQ's license-free EZWrite 6 software. It's packed with classroom tools for all subjects, including timers, rulers, protractors, compasses, and more. EZWrite 6 also lets educators save whiteboard sessions in the cloud, allowing them to continue giving lessons at a later date or allowing students to access lessons on any device and refer to them later. They can also open documents and image files directly on the whiteboard to facilitate discussions. To complement the experience, the split-screen windows function enables multiple applications to be opened side by side — with no need to tap between content — making it even easier to conduct lessons and further comprehension.
