What is a Lightboard?
Why Lightboards Work?
- The students can see the teacher’s facial expressions, gestures and body language at all times.
- The teacher is communicating directly with the students.
- Research suggests that gestures and speech are deeply integrated with cognition. Research suggests that gestures and speech are deeply integrated with cognition.
- Dynamic Drawing Principle – People learn better from a video lecture when the onscreen instructor draws graphics on a board while lecturing rather than referring to already drawn graphics.
- Gaze Guidance Principle - People learn better from a video lecture when the onscreen instructor shifts gaze between the audience and board while lecturing rather than looking only at the audience or board.
- The neon illumination effect creates a strong visual connection with the viewer.
- Combining the teacher's personal style (gestures and speech) with the visual effect increases engagement and retention.
The Benefits of using Lightboards for Your University
LIVE STREAM TO YOUR CLASS
Create a digital classroom where your students can benefit from the personalised learning style of face to face teaching whilst learning at home.
You can answer any questions live and have two-way, interactive conversations which are often lacking in other online learning formats.
CREATE RECORDED LEARNING CONTENT
Make learning more flexible by recording learning content that can be accessed whenever it is needed.
Recorded lightboard videos are a great way allowing students to learn at their own speed. They can be used for preparing useful revision content and for students with additional needs.
TEACH EASILY FROM ANY LOCATION
The design of the small learning glass means it is mobile, can be shared and can even be setup on any table at a teacher’s home. What’s more, you don’t need to be technical to use it, meaning that all teachers can now create high quality learning content independently.
IMPROVE THE LEARNING EXPERIENCE
Capturing students’ attention is key to effective teaching. Why is the Learning Glass perfect for this? Because students can now enjoy a unique and fun style of learning. It captures their attention and makes content more memorable.
BETTER CONNECT WITH YOUR STUDENTS
The Learning Glass enables teachers to write as they speak, facing their students throughout the entire presentation. Research has proven that this visual connection encourages a better emotional connection between student and teacher which improves their retention of information.
