Imagination is now reality with AVerPen, a true 21st Century Classroom solution that combines the intuitive features of existing Interactive White Board technologies into a mobile, collaborative learning solution to stimulate teacher, student and group engagement and immediate feedback. All from virtually any surface in the room! AVerPen was developed to further interactivity between teacher and student or student groups while providing innovative new tools combined in an easy-to-use and highly mobile product. Each student or group will learn, collaborate and problem-solve together, while the built-in Group Response System provides immediate assessment. Imagine the ability to equip two or more classrooms with a full 21st Century interactive solution for the average cost of purchasing and installing a single Interactive Whiteboard! Teacher pens are able to control all features as well as activate, limit, or expand student pen functions, and since the pens function on virtually any surface, mobility is greatly increased by eliminating the need to use a static board or carry a bulky state. All AVerPen and AVerVision Document Camera features are wrapped with one easy to use software tool, eliminating the need for training and support of multiple solutions from multiple vendors.

Why You’ll Love AVerPen? The value and power of using AVerPen		Affordable and Cost Effective By combining popular features of many interactive products such as interactive whiteboards, wireless slates and response systems, teachers have the ability to experience a full 21st Century Classroom Solution for a fraction of the cost of one typical interactive product alone. Mobile and Flexible With the ability to use AVerPen on virtually any surface in the room, teaching is not limited to a single board or location, nor does it require a separate board to carry such as a slate. Teachers and students are free to utilize AVerPen and all its features anywhere. In comparison to interactive whiteboards, there is no need for wiring, board stands, permanent projector mounts or other expensive and complicated installation requirements. Time Efficient No need for time consuming board calibrations, alignments, positioning or other set-up requirements. Prep-time is significantly reduced, allowing more time for actual instruction. Projects and activities can go uninterrupted by easily switching through each function, while initial training is also significantly reduced as AVerPen and AVerVision Document Cameras integrate through one software package. There is only one software to learn. Multiple Configurations AVerPen can be purchased and used as a Starter Pack including 4 Student Pens with 1 Teacher Pen, or as Class Pack including 8 Student Pens with 1 Teacher Pen. Add-On Packs which include 4 student pens and 1 charger per set can be purchased separately as up to 60 student pens can be registered to a single Teacher Pen.
