Vivi, the only wireless digital signage and screen mirroring solution designed specifically for education, today announces the launch of Vivi for Teachers. The free web-based app makes it easy for teachers to actively interact with their students using their individual devices and screens.
With Vivi for Teachers, students can share their content and screens directly to the classroom screen in seconds, without wasting valuable class time searching for the right cable or dongle to connect. Vivi for Teachers also includes a built-in virtual whiteboard that students can use to solve problems, encouraging more students to participate by reducing the anxiety that often accompanies speaking in front of their peers.
“A big pushback from technology post-COVID has been that it can easily turn students into passive learners,” says Juliana Finegan, vice president of Educational Experience at Vivi. “Schools have made large investments in 1:1 devices, but they must be used effectively to achieve the desired outcome: active participation in learning. Vivi for Teachers offers a free solution to encourage and enable collaboration, peer feedback, and student-driven learning. With it, students can easily share their ideas, show their creativity, and deliver class presentations faster and with less stress.”
Megan Oliva, a second-grade teacher in Austin, Texas, agrees, sharing that her students “love sharing their work and showing their classmates how they arrived at an answer. Now they ask me to use Vivi every day. It is easy for me and my students to use, which is key.”
Currently helping more than 2,000 schools, Vivi has subscription-based offerings for schools and districts with additional educational tools, digital signage, announcements, and emergency alert capabilities. Vivi for Teachers is their first free offering specifically for teachers to encourage student engagement and classroom interaction through wireless screen sharing. Vivi has found that 86% of teachers noticed increased student engagement and enthusiasm when sharing their work thanks to using Vivi for Teachers student screen sharing in their classroom.
