New way of teaching

weConnect is Barco's collaborative learning system for higher education.The hardware and software solution offers extensive BYOD support, and enables the creation of an active, engaging experience, whether inside a traditional classroom, in a remote class or even at home.

Its cloud-based system and modular set up means that it can be used in a variety of educational settings from single classroom, to campus-wide or even multi-site environments

Within collaboration rooms, the teacher can send content from one of the group tables to the main screen at any point during the session to discuss the work of one group. With a single push of a button the teacher can then pushes this information to every student table as well, allowing students to view all details of the shared information. Students can also present the results of their work to the other groups. Additionally, the system allows to compare the results of multiple groups at the same time by adding their content to the main display and sharing this back to all student tables.

Upgrading a classroom with weConnect provides an engaging environment for both teachers and students with a fully connected interactive BYOD solution. The teacher can present content ( using a wired or wireless connection) from their device onto the main classroom display and can invite students to share information using their own devices with the rest of the group.

The modern University lecture theatre is a multi-screen environment and weConnect can automatically present onto the available displays. 
The lecturer can present (using a wired or wireless connection) content from their device on the main classroom display and invite students to share information with the rest of the group using their own devices. Quiz or polls can be set up to get the full attention from the students and throughout the session the lecturer can use the results of these quizzes to deepen the student understanding of the content

4K Reading and Writing

Building on Sharp's interactive legacy, the BIG PAD PN-70TH5 represents Sharp's latest "4K Reading and Writing" collaborative touchscreen solution.

Offering state-of-the-art collaboration with the outstandingly smooth projected capacitive (P-CAP) touch technology, Sharp’s new flagship series of 4K BIG PAD interactive displays is once again re-inventing collaborative teamwork.

Sharp’s premium 70” 4K BIG PAD has the "Pen-On-Paper" user experience at the heart of its design. The incredibly fast, responsive and sensitive projected-capacitive 30-point multi-touch has been optimised for best touch performance in demanding applications, such as boardroom meeting rooms, lecture theatres, specialised professional review and mission-critical war-room environments. Enhanced team communication and the capturing of all creative expression means that the best conditions for decisive and productive collaboration are achieved.

Using one BIG PAD is good. Using two or three BIG PAD PN-70TH5's in the powerful Multi-Board configuration is even better! BIG PAD can be linked together to operate as a single collaboration surface. SHARP Touch Viewer software also offers an easy-to-use interface and file system to collect and organise data from different collaborative projects.
