All classrooms were not created equal. At Promethean, we embrace and encourage individuality. That’s why ActivExtras are available to accommodate students and teachers of all kinds.

Little Sarah has big potential but she needs a few extra inches of help from the ActivWand to reach it.

Anna is always on the go in class. She can stroll down the aisles of the classroom but control every aspect of the lesson with ActivSlate.  But at home she can relax and prepare tomorrows lesson with the compact and completely natural writing surface of the ActivTablet, that offers all the same features and precision of her Activboard but on her desk.

When teaching in a classroom too large for an ActivBoard, all she needs is an ActivPanel and a Promethean projector. No matter what size, we’ve got the ActivExtras to bring your ActivClassroom to life.

 
  1. Activremote ThumbActivRemote
    Learning is boundless. Teaching should be too. With ActivRemote, your mobility is maximized. As you are able to move around the classroom while controlling applications on the computer.  With the push of a button, from the back of the room, teachers can direct ActiVote and ActivExpression voting, advance lesson slides, navigate web browsers or even start a movie. Just set the commands, and ActivRemote enables you to be in control, wirelessly.

  2. Activsound Teacher  ActivSound
    In the ActivClassroom, there are no quiet corners. Listening is important, and the ability to speak unstrained above the noise is vital.  We created ActivSound—audio enhancement for educators and students that makes every seat in the class a good one, no matter how lively the lesson gets. It engages the audience and the impact on the learning environment is less stressful and more engaging.

  3. Activslate  ActivSlate
    Movement is a natural component of interactive learning. Set your lessons in motion with the ActivSlate—our wireless, fully integrated, mini-board that allows you the flexibility to move about the classroom while teaching. Seamlessly interact with the ActivSlate using the ActivPen and pass it around to get students involved.

  4. activwand  ActivWand
    Students having trouble reaching the ActivBoard? Presto chango. ActivWand acts just like the ActivPen but provides three times the reach to enable students and teachers of all heights to interact comfortably with the ActivBoard. Comfy to hold and clickable, the ActivWand puts the magic of learning within easy reach.
  5. Activtablet  ActivTablet
    Tomorrow’s lessons are only as good as today’s preparation. Thanks to Promethean’s ActivTablet, now lessons can be prepared with ease, from anywhere. The ActivTablet plugs directly into the computer’s USB port enabling maximum portability. And the wireless pen simulates interaction with the ActivBoard even when you’re nowhere near it. The time has arrived to think (and prepare dynamic lessons) outside of the classroom walls.

  6. ActivpenActivPen
    Teachers told us they found that touch-sensitive screens could be temperamental. Educational specialists told us children’s writing is best developed by holding and using a pen from a young age. So Promethean designed a unique battery-free, wire-free ActivPen ...

  7. Activpanel  ActivPanel
    Teaching in an auditorium that’s too large for an ActivBoard? Have no fear—with the ActivPanel, you’ll get all of the power of interactive teaching on walls of all sizes. The ActivPanel's 15-inch LCD mini-board shows exactly what’s on your computer screen. Easily interact with it and clearly project it to any size!
