The BenQ RP03 board with InstaShare 2recently awarded the Award for the best in technology and learning for back to school, is designed to support student participation and collaboration to create an engaging learning environment. As a smart board, it provides teachers with the most advanced way to encourage active learning while remaining intuitive to learn and use from day one.
“The BenQ Board is easier than I thought it would be,” said Lisa Paprzycki, educational technology trainer at the Citrus County School District. “We even had a substitute use it in 3 minutes.”
BenQ Board smartboards feature inclusive and intuitive features including single sign-on, cloud access, screen sharing, split screen, screen recording and annotation tools using a certified germ-resistant interactive display. Designed as a central hub for learning, collaboration and engagement, BenQ boards offer custom settings, cloud storage and app compatibility.
BenQ Board RP03’s unique InstaShare 2 integrated wireless presentation system enables advanced collaboration opportunities, including:
- A touchback feature allows teachers to control their students’ shared screens, while annotations allow them to highlight and draw important points.
- Teachers can enable the floating windows feature so they can use other apps on the whiteboard while sharing content.
- Session management features give teachers the power to set permissions for each of their students and control which of them can share content at any given time.
- Teachers can enable “do not disturb” mode to avoid unwanted interruptions during class.
- The InstaShare 2 Smart Controller, accessible from the teacher’s mobile device, allows teachers to use these controls, as well as other BenQ Board apps and features, from anywhere in the classroom.

Other features include license-free EZ Write annotation and whiteboard software; germ-resistant screen, pen and remote control; split windows for multitasking; array microphones, 16W speakers and 16W Dolby Digital Plus surround sound; InstaShare 2 Wireless Screen Sharing; and Eyesafe technology to reduce blue light emissions.
“BenQ Instashare revolutionizes the way teachers teach,” write the tech & Learning Award judges. “Allowing teachers to stand and move around the classroom increases classroom management and puts them in ‘the zone.’ “InstaShare 2 provides more opportunities to share and collaborate with students by not being connected to a desk or podium.”
The RP03 BenQ board is the culmination of BenQ’s quest to create comprehensive classroom ecosystems that are intuitive for teachers and students while eliminating hours of training, annual licensing fees, and complex IT monitoring and maintenance.
