Distance education, online learning, and web conferencing have become the buzzwords in recent years in the academic world!
This was fueled further by the outbreak of COVID-19, which has forced educational institutions across the world to shut down to contain the disease. Now, more and more schools, colleges and universities have shifted to distance mode, and online learning has become a new normal. And this is where newer and effective educational tools are required to make online teaching, learning and meeting more efficient and engaging.
Whether you are broadcasting a distance learning program online or hosting a web conference, an educational tool like graphics tablet can allow users to write, edit, record minutes or jot down the ideas and inspirations, improve the efficiency of teaching and learning, and provide more intuitive and effective way to host a web conference or an online learning program.
Why use an educational tool like graphics tablet?
E-learning without a graphics tablet becomes cumbersome, passive and provides an inefficient experience around making, saving, backing up notes. Without a digital pen precise, accurate drawings and equations in addition to handwriting becomes impossible. Active e-learning requires speakers or faculty to engage and interact with participants or students which can be achieved effectively through digital writing tablets during online lessons and meetings.
