Transform Your Classroom For The Future With The Latest JOI Smartboard Lineup

In this day and age, our lives are highly dependent on technology in everything we do. Just like the smartphones you use today, classrooms evolve, too – and JOI’s Smartboard has contributed to the digital transformation of learning environments in Malaysia in the past few years. For students, this meant a more interactive learning experience; and for lecturers, this provided a more effective way of teaching.

Traditional classrooms are almost all the same: they all have a blackboard (or whiteboard), and the interactivity aspect of the teaching and learning process is limited. A good set of materials and presentations means students will be less likely to get bored with classes, and that’s where JOI Smartboard comes in. Because JOI Smartboard aren’t just a simple digital display for teachers to work with – they provide several interactive tools to make sure students stay engaged and stay learning.

Malaysia’s Ministry of Education clearly sees the need for digital transformation and reducing the technology gap between urban and rural-bound students. As NST reported – the Digital Education Policy outlines the short-term, medium-term, and long-term goals in enabling local education systems to embrace global technology advancements.

So how does JOI Smartboard work in enhancing the teaching and learning experience in the classrooms? Here are a few examples: first, compared to traditional teaching – where teachers simply teach and students simply listen – the inclusion of Smartboard allows teachers to get students engaged in interactive learning (in other words, students’ participation). 

Teachers can use elements like interactive quizzes and games to keep students engaged – aside from that, with support for multimedia elements, presentations, online resources, and real-time collaboration tools, this provides a greater range of materials available to facilitate effective lecturing, something that a traditional classroom setting will struggle to achieve. 

For students, the JOI Smartboard allows real-time sharing, editing, and co-creation of content, ideal for group projects, brainstorming sessions, or just good old problem-solving without getting confined by the small screens or restrictive methods of collaboration. It also allows students to get familiar with digital technology – a skillset that personally believe all students must acquire. 

Both standard and higher education institutions can rely on JOI Smartboard to maximize teaching and learning efficiency for both teachers and students. The company offers three sizes ranging from 65-inch Smartboard for smaller classrooms, to larger 75-inch or 86-inch options. 

To ensure hardware limitation does not get in the way of effective teaching, this JOI Smartboard come with various design features, including built-in camera and microphones, 40-point IR touchscreen support, zero-bonding display panel, 4K UHD resolution, Mohs Level 7 scratch resistance, accessible controls, spaced-out anti-collision USB ports, and support for multiple operating systems, including built-in Android system and Windows.

The system powering the Smartboard is also designed to be as discreet as possible, opting for a detachable module design that can be placed in spots where noise can be isolated or provides easy maintenance. You have the option of an Intel® Core™ i5-based OPS module or the Intel® Core™ i7-based OPS module, both offering 8GB of RAM or higher, 256GB of SSD storage or higher, and Windows Pro operating system installation.
