Promethean, a global leader in interactive classroom solutions, has received an innovation award from the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO), United Nations' education agency.

 

Promethean’s range of learner response systems, including Activote and Activexpression, has been voted as ‘The Most Innovative Idea’ during the UNESCO’s ICT in Education Innovative Awards Exhibition. Half of the academic experts and government education ministers from across the Asia Pacific region chose and allocated their UNESCO dollars to Promethean’s learner response system as their preferred education product.

 

“Promethean continuously create an environment that not only encourages students to be comfortable with technology but is also personalising fun learning while encourage learning experience through participation, said Majeed Sharaf, Promethean Vice President for the Middle East.

 

“Activexpression has proved to be one of our most exciting products and has received excellent uptake in the markets where it is currently available. This UNESCO recognition reinforces Promethean’s ability to transform the learning environment into more interactive using our innovative products. With the UAE currently focusing on improving its education system, we are confident that Promethean can provide new ways to encourage involvement from both students and teachers to produce outstanding Emirati graduates,” he added.

 

Activexpression is Promethean’s latest product in their learner response systems range and is designed to allow students to ‘text’ to an interactive whiteboard using words, phrases or numbers to increase participation and engagement between students and teachers and also allows students to elaborate on answers. Activote, Promethean ’s first learner response system, targets younger pupils, with a simpler layout and six voting buttons pupils can easily answer multiple choice questions in a fun and engaging, quiz style.

 

The award reinforces Promethean’s leading position as a global business helping to raise education standards worldwide through its innovative solutions, and cements its reputation in the Asia Pacific region as the market leader.
