“Distance learning is becoming the new normal. Therefore, we have made it our priority to assist educators struggling with the accelerated rate of EdTech adoption” said XXXX, XXX at ViewSonic. “Apart from the high learning curve of distance learning, some of the major concerns we have heard was the lack of student authentication, strain on bandwidth, and an uncertainty surrounding student engagement – we  have made it our mission to solve these issues.”

ViewSonic has been listening closely to educators, students, and parents on how to create a simple-to-use online solution that enables teachers to deliver meaningful lessons easily, while replicating the engagement of a physical in-classroom experience as much as possible.
