Boxlight takes home Tech & Learning Award of Excellence and District Administration Readers’ Choice Top 100 Award, and is also named a finalist in the BETT 2017 Program, with winners being announced at January’s Annual Conference in London.
Lawrenceville, GA — December 1, 2016 — Boxlight, a global leader in digital teaching technologies, is being honored for its outstanding classroom creations. Its MimioTeach™ portable interactive whiteboard was named “best upgraded product” in the 34th annual Awards of Excellence program sponsored by Tech & Learning magazine. Additionally, the company’s groundbreaking MimioMobile™ collaboration and assessment app with MimioStudio™ classroom software made District Administration magazine’s 2016 Readers’ Choice Top 100 program, and have also been named a finalist in the 2017 BETT program—the industry’s largest global conference, which will be held in London in late January.
The acclaimed MimioTeach portable bar is extremely popular for its ability to easily turn any whiteboard interactive in under a minute. Used with a classroom computer and projector, it makes engaging and collaborative learning not only affordable, but almost instantaneous as well. As part of a complete interactive solution that includes MimioStudio classroom software, the MimioTeach interactive whiteboard allows teachers to create dynamic lessons and activities, as well as perform formative and summative assessments.
The MimioMobile application fosters unrivaled student collaboration and engagement by linking mobile devices in classrooms. Once equipped with the app, users can access learning events and assessments on almost any device—including Chromebooks and Apple or Android products.
“For more than 20 years, our company has set the industry standard for high-quality, affordable, flexible, and innovative digital technology solutions,” said Mark Elliott, CEO of Boxlight. “Being recognized for the tradition of developing and delivering best-in-class digital products that support teachers and students with a better way to learn is an incredible honor.”
“This year’s 34th Tech & Learning Awards of Excellence program honored new and upgraded software, hardware, network, and Web products,” said Kevin Hogan, editorial director for NewBay Media’s Tech & Learning Group. “A panel of more than 30 educators tested over 120 entries and chose the winners. Among the high-quality offerings being honored are resources addressing management, safety, communication, differentiated learning, assessment, and other key areas in education. These companies can be proud that our team of judges granted them their seal of approval.”
