The Essential Role of Technology in the Return to the Office

The Essential Role of Technology in the Return to the Office 
By Deidre Deacon, ViewSonic Corp.

 

Canada’s workplace landscape is undergoing its most significant reset since the early pandemic years—but not because workers are suddenly eager to trade home offices for cubicles. The renewed push toward inperson work is being driven almost entirely by mandates: from governments, from major employers, and from the shifting economics of commercial real estate. Yet there’s another force reshaping this transition just as profoundly: technology. After years of refining highly efficient homeoffice setups, employees now expect the same seamless, intuitive experience when they walk through the office door. As a result, the tools that once supported remote work have become the critical infrastructure enabling a smooth, sustainable shift back to more officecentric hybrid models.

 

The public sector is leading the return to the office (RTO) charge, and the scale is unprecedented. CBC has reported that tens of thousands of provincial government employees in Ontario and Alberta have been ordered back to the office full time starting in 2026. This follows the federal government’s September 2024 directive requiring public servants to be onsite at least three days per week.

 

These are not gentle nudges. They are sweeping, top-down directives affecting the single largest employment block in the country. When governments mandate attendance, the ripple effects extend far beyond the workplace—reshaping transit patterns, downtown economies, and the broader labour market.

 

In the private sector, Canada’s major banks—RBC, Scotiabank, TD, and BMO—are reinforcing the shift. Employees are now expected to be in the office at least four days per week, with many roles moving to a full five-day schedule. Banks employ tens of thousands of workers, and their policies often set the tone for other large employers. Their pivot toward near-full-time office attendance signals a broader corporate recalibration: flexibility is narrowing, and the office is once again becoming the default.

 

The commercial real estate market is already reflecting this shift. According to CBRE’s national office report, Canada’s office vacancy rate fell from 18.7% in 2024 to 18% by the end of 2025—a 0.7‑point drop and the first decline since the pandemic began. A falling vacancy rate is a concrete indicator that more people are physically returning to office spaces – a change that is being attributed directly to the acceleration of RTO mandates—not voluntary worker behaviour. In other words, the market is responding to policy, not preference.

 

Yet even as employers tighten expectations, many workers remain deeply reluctant to give up remote work. Angus Reid data shows that three in five Canadians prefer to work mostly from home, and one in four would likely quit if forced back full time. This resistance is slowing actual attendance, even where mandates exist. Many employees comply only partially, and others are actively seeking roles that preserve hybrid or remote options. The tension between employer requirements and worker preferences has become one of the defining workplace dynamics of this era.

 

With new return to the office mandates in place, technology has evolved from a convenience to a critical infrastructure for ensuring a seamless transition. As companies implement these mandates, they’re discovering a truth employees have known for years: the physical workplace must now earn its relevance and compete with the efficiency of home setups by offering “phygital” environments – digital and physical spaces that are perfectly synchronized. After experiencing the autonomy and efficiency of remote work, professionals aren’t simply returning to desks; they’re evaluating whether the office can match the seamless, personalized workspaces they are accustomed to at home.

 

Forwardthinking organizations are blending physical and digital experiences so fluidly that employees barely notice the seams. When a meeting room recognizes you, when collaboration tools sync instantly across devices, when hybrid meetings feel equitable rather than awkward—suddenly the office becomes a destination, not an obligation.

 

This isn’t a matter of perks; it’s a matter of performance. Research shows that most employees view highquality technology as essential to doing their jobs well, and companies that invest strategically in advanced tools can unlock significant productivity gains. Technology is no longer a “nice to have” in the returntooffice era. It is the infrastructure that determines whether collaboration thrives or stalls.

The mandate may bring people back—but only the right technology will make them stay.

 

Organizations that want to make the return to office a seamless experience need to implement technology ecosystems that remove friction rather than create it. This is where ViewSonic’s approach becomes a compelling blueprint for what a high performance “phygital” workplace can look like. ViewSonic’s portfolio of display solutions prioritize seamless connectivity and real-time collaboration across devices and spaces, bridging the hybrid gap that many organizations are struggling to close.

It also prioritizes user well-being with advanced ergonomics designed for all-day comfort. The integrated docking capability delivers immediate savings by removing the need for separate docking hardware, lowering total cost of ownership from day one. It also simplifies IT operations by standardizing on a single, fully compatible solution—eliminating the headaches that come with managing mixedbrand displays and docks, and avoiding the interoperability issues that slow teams down. The result is a clean, centralized hub that allows professionals to move from commute to deep focus without the usual tangle of adapters and peripherals.

 

 

Mobility for the Modern Hybrid Professional
Work is no longer confined to a single desk, and productivity shouldn’t be either. ViewSonic’s VG1656N portable monitor gives laptop users a completely wire-free second screen experience wherever they land—at a hot desk, a café, or between offices. With a built-in battery and wireless casting, this 16-inch display eliminates the need for power outlets or video cables, supporting the kind of complex multitasking that today’s flexible roles demand.

ViewSonic provides a platform that bridges the physical and digital worlds. Paired with TeamOne™ software, these displays turn any room into an interactive collaboration hub where in-person and remote participants can co-create on an infinite digital canvas.

 

For meeting environments where presentation takes precedence over interactivity, ViewSonic’s CDEG3 and CDE31 commercial displays offer a powerful alternative. For rooms requiring seamless integration with Microsoft Teams Rooms (MTR) or existing meeting systems, the CDEG3 commercial display series integrates seamlessly. Designed as an OS-less solution, it prioritizes security and boots up quickly, allowing meetings to start without delay. For spaces demanding even greater endurance, the CDE31 series is built for heavy-duty use. With 24/7 performance capabilities, it serves as a reliable workhorse for both high-traffic meeting rooms and continuous digital signage.

 

As organizations bring employees back into the office, the need for impactful, campuswide communication has never been greater. ViewSonic Direct View LED delivers a powerful platform to elevate corporate messaging, enhance collaboration, and modernize shared spaces. With purposebuilt solutions for every environment—LDS for dynamic company events and largescale functions, LDM and LDP for boardrooms and expansive meeting areas with stunning 1080p or 4K clarity, and LDE for costeffective video wall refreshes. Everything needed for deployment is delivered in one fully integrated package, making installation effortless, minimizing complexity, and enabling organizations to realize value significantly faster.

 

 

Reliability at Enterprise Scale
Behind the scenes, the ViewSonic Manager™ cloud platform gives IT teams the ability to monitor, update, and manage the entire display network remotely. This ensures that every workspace—from conference rooms to individual desks—remains a dependable, high-performance environment.

 

Together, these solutions demonstrate a simple truth: the return to the office succeeds only when the experience is worth returning to. By integrating rapid start hardware with intuitive personal and collaborative tools, ViewSonic isn’t just supporting hybrid work—it’s redefining what a modern, technology driven workplace can be.

 

As the return to the office continues to take hold, the gap between what workers want and what employers require will continue to shape the future of work—and determine how sustainable this mandated return truly is. Technology will play a pivotal role in bridging that divide, including visual solutions that enhance collaboration, creativity, and productivity across distributed, hybrid work teams.

Projectors vs dvLED: Which Display Technology Is Right for Your Campus?

Projectors vs dvLED: Which Display Technology Is Right for Your Campus?

Projectors vs dvLED. It’s a big decision for any modern campus. The type of display you pick affects how teachers teach, how students learn, and how your budget looks a few years down the road.

You might be wondering if you should stick with the traditional projector or make the leap to something newer. Let’s break down the differences so you can make the best choice for your school.

 

Understanding the Tech

Projectors use a light source to throw an image onto a separate screen or wall. They have been the standard in classrooms and lecture halls for decades.

dvLED (Direct View LED) displays are made of LED panels that show images directly on the screen, so there is no projection involved. They are super bright and seamless. You can get them as simple, pre-configured All-in-One video walls that come in standard sizes, or as configurable solutions that you can build to fit a specific shape or wall.

 

Key Considerations for Schools

When you are weighing projectors vs dvLED, here are the main things you need to think about.

Image Quality and Brightness

Projectors can produce big images, but they often struggle in bright rooms. If you have big windows, you usually have to dim the lights to see the screen clearly.

dvLED offers ultra-bright, vivid images that look great even in sunny rooms. The colors stay sharp, and you do not have to worry about shadows or glare.

Size and Scalability

Projectors are easy to scale up by using bigger screens. However, the image quality can drop as the size increases.

dvLED can be built to fit massive spaces. ViewSonic offers standard All-in-One sizes ranging from 136" all the way up to 231". Need something even bigger? Our configurable options allow you to build a custom video wall larger than 231" to fit huge auditoriums or gymnasiums.

Installation and Space

Projectors require a specific setup to work best. You usually need to install both a mount for the projector and a separate screen on the wall. You also need to account for the space between the lens and the screen, which can lead to shadows if someone walks in front of the light.

dvLED displays mount directly to the wall, which saves space and creates a streamlined look. However, they have their own requirements. The wall needs to be perfectly flat and structurally ready to support the panels. While dvLED eliminates the shadow problem, ensuring your wall is prepped correctly is a key part of the installation.

Maintenance and Cost

Let's talk numbers. Projectors usually look cheaper upfront. But have you really crunched the numbers on maintenance? When you add up the cost of replacement bulbs, filters, and the labor to swap them out over a few years, the price tag jumps up fast.

On the flip side, dvLED displays like the ViewSonic LDE Series are built for the long haul. They offer 24/7 reliability and easy-to-swap panels. Here is the kicker: the cost of an LDE video wall often rivals what you would spend on a high-end projector and a professional tab-tension screen. You get a superior picture for a similar price, without the ongoing maintenance headaches.

The Breakdown: Pros and Cons

Here is a quick look at how the two stack up.

  • Tight Budgets: If you need a simple solution for a standard classroom.
  • Controlled Lighting: Spaces where you can easily dim the lights.
  • Small Meeting Rooms: Where you do not need a massive video wall. You can also look into ViewBoard interactive displays for these settings.

When to Upgrade to dvLED

If you want to make an impact, dvLED is the way to go. ViewSonic has a specific series for every need.

  • For the Auditorium: If you need a screen that moves, the LDS Series is a foldable 138" display on wheels. You can roll it out for assemblies and set it up in minutes.
  • For Lobbies and Student Centers: The LDM Series is perfect here. It has Glue-on-Board (GOB) technology, so it is durable enough to handle high-traffic areas.
  • For Premium Learning: The LDP Series offers stunning 4K visuals. It uses Chip-on-Board (COB) technology for extra protection against impact and dust.
  • For Creative Spaces: If you want a unique shape or size, the LDC Series is configurable. It lets you build a screen that fits your specific design.
  • For General Use: The LDE Series is your cost-effective workhorse. It gives you that seamless video wall experience with integrated power and processing.

Questions to Ask Before You Buy

Still on the fence? Ask yourself these four questions.

  1. What is the use case? Are you teaching, hosting events, or showing digital signage?
  2. What is the lighting like? Is the room full of windows or tucked away in a basement?
  3. What is the real budget? Don't just look at the price tag. Think about installation and maintenance costs over five years.
  4. How will it integrate? ViewSonic displays work with systems you likely already use, like Crestron, Extron, and AMX.

How a Mobile dvLED Video Wall Transforms Shared Environments

How a Mobile dvLED Video Wall Transforms Shared Environments

A mobile dvLED display video wall transforms shared spaces like lobbies, classrooms, and auditoriums by giving you a massive, high-impact screen that goes wherever you need it. In the past, you were stuck with a screen that just sat in one spot.

Now, technology has moved forward. You can bring bright, clear visuals right to where your audience is. A mobile video wall makes it simple to share info and wow the crowd. It’s flexible enough to adapt to almost any environment on campus.

What is a dvLED Display? 

A dvLED display (Direct View LED) is a giant screen made of LED panels. Unlike the old LCDs or projectors you're used to, these panels show images directly without needing a backlight.

Here's what makes dvLED tech special:

  • Ultra-bright quality: It's super bright, so you'll see the picture clearly even in sunny rooms.
  • Scalability: While some configurable series let you build a wall to any size or shape, others come in fixed sizes for easy setup.
  • Durability: The panels are built tough for busy spaces and last a long time.

You'll see these displays popping up in lecture halls, gyms, and libraries where standard projectors just can't keep up.

Why Mobility Makes a Difference 

Imagine having a giant 138" screen that you can simply roll into an elevator. A digital video wall that moves is a total game-changer for schools.

Here's why mobility matters:

  • Perfect for multi-purpose spaces: You don't need to bolt a screen to the wall in a room that serves multiple functions. The display is there when you need it and gone when you don't.
  • No permanent installation: You can skip the construction entirely. Since you don't need a permanent install, you save time and avoid drilling into your walls.
  • Save money: Since one mobile video wall serves many spaces, it lowers your total cost of ownership.
  • Better access: It's not locked away in a single lecture hall, so more teachers and departments can use it.
  • Event-ready: It's perfect for assemblies, guest speakers, or school spirit events.
  • Easy setup: You can skip the complex install—just roll it in, plug it in, and you're ready to wow your audience.

Where to Use Mobile Video Walls 

Mobile dvLED video walls are perfect for schools that need flexibility. They work great in a lot of different spots on campus.

Lecture Halls 

You can move the display between large lecture spaces. It's perfect for presentations or guest speakers. The screen is big enough that everyone in the back row can still see clearly.

Auditoriums and Gymnasiums 

These are busy areas, so you need a screen that can handle the action. ViewSonic displays use Glue-on-Board (GOB) technology. This protects the LEDs from daily wear and tear, like bumps, dust, and moisture. It ensures your screen stays safe during pep rallies or performances.

Multi-Purpose Spaces

Schools are full of rooms that do double duty. Maybe it's a cafeteria that hosts town halls, or a library atrium used for special events. You can't always mount a permanent screen in these spots. A mobile video wall allows you to transform any open space into a presentation venue instantly. It rolls in, sets up fast, and is big enough for the whole crowd to see.

Key Features of ViewSonic Mobile Solutions 

ViewSonic is leading the way with mobile dvLED displays. Here are a few features that make them stand out.

Plug-and-Play Mobility 

These displays are designed to move. They come with a motorized stand and a durable flight case for easy transport. The flight case stores and protects the display when not in use. The foldable design even fits into most elevators. You simply roll it to the next location.

All-in-One Design 

You don't need extra boxes or wires. The system has built-in media players and a smart control bar built right into the stand. It keeps things clean and simple so there's nothing to distract from the huge screen.

Easy Screen Sharing 

Teachers and students need to connect quickly. With ViewSonic AirSync software, you can share your screen wirelessly from any device. It works with tools you already use, like AirPlay and Google Cast, so there's no hassle.

Smart Integration 

The display plays nice with other tech. It works with control platforms like Crestron, Extron, and AMX. This makes it easy for your IT team to manage power and inputs from one central spot.

ClassSwift: A Holistic Approach to Engagement, Assessment, and Responsive Teaching

By Owen Matson, Ph.D.

Every time I taught Ralph Ellison’s Invisible Man in my AP 11th-grade English classes, I discovered new dimensions of the novel’s devastating beauty and profound complexity. My students, however, often struggled with its dense themes—identity, race, and societal invisibility. These topics sparked rich discussions, but it was difficult to know who was truly engaged and who was quietly struggling. Some students dominated conversations while others stayed silent, leaving me guessing who grasped the symbolism and who needed more support. Many educators can relate.

Back then, I didn’t have a tool like ClassSwift. I relied on exit tickets, short formative quizzes, and classroom discussions to gauge understanding. I might as well have been carving lessons into stone walls with burnt sticks and ochre. While discussions sometimes led to magical moments of insight, these methods were incomplete and time-consuming. Tracking participation and understanding in a structured way was nearly impossible. And honestly, the daily pile of exit tickets and quizzes felt endless.

If I had ClassSwift, those fragmented insights could have been replaced with clear, real-time feedback—showing exactly who was engaged and who needed help. No more guessing—just responsive, effective teaching. ClassSwift’s AI-powered question generation makes it easy to create diverse formative assessments, allowing students to demonstrate their skills and knowledge through formats such as drag-and-drop activities, image-based prompts, and audio responses. Its robust reporting features, complete with instructional recommendations aligned with Common Core and state standards, would have helped me adapt lessons on the spot to address individual learning needs. Additionally, ClassSwift’s real-time translation feature supports second-language learners by enabling them to engage with content in their preferred language, fostering inclusivity and promoting equitable participation.

That may all sound a bit promotional—but it’s completely true.

And these features only scratch the surface. ClassSwift offers even more tools to support classroom engagement, formative assessment, and responsive teaching—far more than I can cover here. But even these core features could have dramatically improved how I taught and how my students learned.

Educators today still face the same challenge: balancing student engagement with meaningful, actionable insights to guide instruction. After years in the classroom, I tend to approach EdTech solutions with skepticism. Too often, interactive tools focus on boosting participation without revealing real understanding. On the flip side, many assessment tools emphasize data collection but neglect the collaborative, discussion-based teaching and learning that drives deeper thinking.

ClassSwift bridges that gap—helping teachers engage students while using data-driven insights to adjust instruction in real-time.

In what follows, I’ll step out of the first person to provide a more detailed breakdown of how ClassSwift delivers value for teachers, IT managers, and administrators. This post is the first in a blog series exploring ClassSwift’s full range of benefits. ClassSwift is like a Swiss Army knife for the classroom: Simple to use with just one tool in hand, yet capable of unfolding into a wide array of powerful features that support every aspect of teaching and learning.

"We decided to use the ViewBoard interactive displays because they gave us the ease of connecting any type of device. It was also from one of the few brands that could provide the equipment quickly during the pandemic, coupled with our trust in ViewSonic and the relationship we had already built”


— SILVANA BALAREZO, UPC DIGITAL LEARNING EXPERIENCE MANAGER

THE CHALLENGE

  • Leverage professors’ digital literacy and use of technology during the pandemic. 

  • Engage in hybrid education that is neither complex for teachers to use nor a distraction in their teaching process. 

Following the pandemic, UPC leaders wanted to foster a return to in-person education, without losing the technology literacy they had gained after two years of lockdown.

“We were looking for a technological proposal that would not be complex for teachers to use or distract them from their teaching process, and we wanted a technology that could be feasible over time to take advantage of all the lessons learned by teachers and students,” says Silvana Balarezo, Digital Learning Experience Manager at UPC.

UPC had already been using ViewSonic® ViewBoard® interactive displays in academic environments, creative rooms and a pilot student project which still continues today.

“We decided to use the ViewBoard interactive displays because they gave us the ease of connecting any type of device. It was also from one of the few brands that could provide the equipment quickly during the pandemic, coupled with our trust in ViewSonic and the relationship we had already built,” Balarezo said.

One of UPC’s main objectives was that students benefit from any education mode. If a student attended face-to-face lessons, they should feel that it was worth coming to the campus, and an online student should feel as if they were inside the classroom sharing the same experience as their classmates, with no need to come to the physical classroom. 

This is the reason why UPC adopted the Hyflex concept in which hybrid classrooms are designed to function as physical, 100% remote or both, without affecting education quality or the learning experience in thanks to the equipment used.

“Our mission was to make professors feel comfortable in the classroom. We didn’t want them to feel that they were in a recording studio,” said Balarezo. “The classroom needed to have the technological tools to motivate learning and support collaborative activities between face-to-face and online students.”

THE SOLUTION

  • Leverage professors’ digital literacy and use of technology during the pandemic. 

  • Engage in hybrid education that is neither complex for teachers to use nor a distraction in their teaching process. 

ViewSonic set up 72 classrooms with ViewBoard IFP8650 86” Ultra HD 4K displays, along with VPC25-W33-P1 slot-in PCs with Windows 10 Pro, and Viewboard Cast™ software for Windows licenses. This setup allowed students and teachers to make wireless presentations from any of their devices to the displays using a licensed application.

In addition, UPC added wireless physical classroom microphones for teachers and students, a pro camera for streaming and a secondary display so that the teacher can view and manage remote students. This very successful layout was designed after taking into account UPC’s previous experiences with online and hybrid classrooms.

“We should highlight that the ViewSonic slot-in PCs, which are installed on the back of the ViewBoard display, deliver computing power without the traditional wiring required to connect a PC,” said Balarezo. “This provides a user-friendly environment for professors to manage the display, the online sessions, and the use of online classrooms and videoconferences.” 

In addition, a teacher certification process was implemented for the ViewBoard displays. UPC currently has 200 certified professors and 800 teachers undergoing the certification process.

“Our professors were initially apprehensive because of what we had experienced during the pandemic, but once classes started, students also accepted the new education mode. Today, faculty members encourage diversified student interaction in the classroom, including online and face-to-face student groups and work, in addition to promoting autonomous learning,” said Balarezo. 

THE RESULTS

  • Customized learning, access to different educational services and review with recorded lessons.

  • Teacher-friendly technology as if they were using a PC, tablet or cell phone.

  • UPC became a modern, diverse and inclusive teaching university.

Students highly value the possibility of choosing between face-to-face or online learning, with the same advantages and benefits in either learning mode. 

Professors value the convenience and agility with which they work using the ViewBoard interactive displays, including the myViewBoard® Whiteboard software for highlighting and creating content, which helps to provide better presentations. 

“Having a group of face-to-face and online students provides a lot of flexibility to interact. It is essential for the development of autonomous learning and also for students to feel engaged and identify with the university,” said Elías Neira, Education History and Philosophy Professor at UPC.

Gatineau-Based Private School Adopts ViewSonic Digital Learning Solution to Navigate A Changing Landscape



Case Study

Gatineau-Based Private School Adopts ViewSonic Digital Learning Solution to Navigate A Changing Landscape

Company

For the Collège Nouvelles-Frontières private high school in Gatineau, the pandemic has proven to be a catalyst for innovation. Like many schools, Nouvelles-Frontières had to quickly adapt its existing technology resources to accommodate a distance learning model. The early months of the pandemic were the ideal starting point for the school to develop an entirely new, flexible approach to distance learning that would serve the students’ and teachers’ needs in both the short and long term. One key to its successful transition was investing in ViewSonic’s interactive teaching platform to improve collaboration, increase engagement and ensure that learning could continue uninterrupted – whether students were in the classroom or at home.

Overview

Problem:

  • The technology they had previously had limited applications for distance learning due to issues around image quality, camera performance and connectivity

Solution:

  • ViewSonic ViewBoard® and myViewBoard™ Software

Result:

  • All requirements were met and/or exceeded
  • School’s administration team can remotely control its displays
  • Students are more engaged and can concentrate more easily from home
  • Mac, iOS, Android and Windows formats accommodate presentations and guest speakers

We realized that providing state-of-the-art tools to teachers would be beneficial in managing future waves of the pandemic and would ensure that we could always deliver quality teaching to our students whatever the situation.

— Serge Lévesque, Coordinator of Computer and Material Resources

Problem

According to Serge Lévesque, coordinator of computer and material resources at the Collège Nouvelles-Frontières, the early days of distance learning were difficult because of technological limitations. When Gatineau went into lockdown in the spring, the school was already using projectors and tablets. However, due to issues around image quality, camera performance and connectivity, the technology had limited applications for distance learning.

“It became more difficult when we moved to combined distance and in-class education, with students at school and others at home,” says Lévesque. “We realized that providing state-of-the-art tools to teachers would be beneficial in managing future waves of the pandemic and would ensure that we could always deliver quality teaching to our students whatever the situation.”

The quest was on to find a platform that met the needs of educators, engaged students and was simple to use. After conducting an exhaustive search of different technology platforms, the Collège Nouvelles-Frontières chose the ViewSonic® ViewBoard® advanced interactive teaching platform.

The ViewSonic ViewBoard® education ecosystem includes platform-agnostic interactive flat panel displays and digital whiteboarding software designed for the rapidly evolving needs of today’s education environments. The myViewBoard™ software platform is full-featured, connecting the school’s students and teachers in a more dynamic and engaging way by enabling real-time collaboration from any location, with cloud-based portability, screen mirroring/sharing and digital whiteboarding.

Today, all classes at Collège Nouvelles-Frontières use ViewSonic ViewBoard displays. Because the technology is wireless, it reduces the need for additional projectors and speakers. “Previously we had a lot of wires, and a lot of technical problems,” recalls Lévesque, who says he appreciates the ability to simplify their systems through a single product that meets all the needs of students and teachers, “The ViewSonic solution replaces everything.”

Optional features include the ability to import files, such as lecture notes, from third-party software. Teachers can also browse the web or open apps directly from the interactive screen, saving time that would have otherwise been spent repurposing content. In addition, educators are empowered to choose the collaboration software they need based on their specific requirements. Using vCast™ software, students can even share content from their tablet or computer onto the classroom whiteboard.

Solution

myViewBoard software supports both Mac and iOS environments and is also compatible with Android and Windows formats. Lévesque says this feature was critical in accommodating the presentations of invited external speakers who use different platforms.

Using the myViewBoard.com website, the school’s administration team can remotely control its displays. Administrators and staff can open, close, broadcast and update content without having to physically move to each room.

In the event of a return to remote learning, myViewBoard will enable teachers to run an effective and efficient virtual classroom. With features like virtual discussion groups and warnings when a student is not paying attention, teachers are able to create a more informed learning experience tailored to students’ needs.

As the year progresses, the administration will also be able to use interactive whiteboards to disseminate promotional material and relevant information during open houses and parent meetings. “We will be able to move them everywhere depending on how we need to use them,” says Lévesque.

Lévesque notes that the interactive ViewSonic learning platform stimulates students and improves their concentration, regardless of whether the teaching is done in the classroom, at home, or across different places simultaneously.

Result

Lévesque adds that the Collège Nouvelles-Frontières is known within the education sector as a leader in integrating new technologies, “It’s always been our trademark, but it has to make sense for students.”

In fact, Collège Nouvelles-Frontières showcases its latest investment in ViewSonic solutions in its recruitment campaigns as a way to distinguish itself from other schools.

Whether the school year is managed in class or remotely, Collège Nouvelles- Frontières is ready for any situation that might arise in the coming year, says Lévesque. “Everyone’s tasks will be optimized with this new technology.”
