If you’re the type of professor who would rather be interactive during lecture instead of sitting behind a podium, we have the tool for you!
Gone are the days of sitting by the computer to press the mouse each time you want to advance to the next slide or advance to a new website. Engage is a hand-held, wireless, touch LCD screen that is an “extension” of your computer at the instructor station. This tool gives instructors the opportunity to get up and walk throughout the classroom without losing accessibility to their computer. Use the stylus to navigate presentations from the back of the room, annotate over any material displayed on the screen, advance through websites, and more!
This is a great opportunity for instructors to walk around large classrooms but still have the accessibility of flipping slides, navigating websites or Blackboard, and interacting with the computer in the same way they would at the instructor station. Come see us in the Media Lab if you would like to learn more about Engage and are interested in using it in your classroom!
