Plans include integration with G-Suite and the
district’s "Extending Learning Beyond the Classroom" project
Boxlight Corporation (NASDAQ:BOXL),
a leading provider of interactive technology solutions for the
global education market, today announced that Clayton County Public
Schools (“CCPS”), Georgia’s fifth-largest school district, will
continue to work with the company’s Professional Services division,
Boxlight-EOS Education.
The partnership will provide expanded professional training
services and programs to the district during the 2020-21 academic
year. Boxlight-EOS’ comprehensive online, onsite, and consultancy
training for CCPS educators within its Mimio whole-class learning
solution will expand to include integration with G-Suite, the
district’s Extending Learning Beyond the Classroom (ELBC) platform.
Additionally, Boxlight-EOS will support CCPS in preparing teachers
for the district-wide Chromebook deployment. The professional
training related to the ELBC deployment and G Suite is a CCPS
initiative to strengthen student achievement and engagement with
both face-to-face and online learning.
In Spring 2018, Boxlight was the chosen solution for an $18
million digital classroom refresh project in CCPS; to install its
innovative Mimio classroom solution in approximately 3,200
classrooms; comprised of 38 elementary, 15 middle and 12 high
schools. The installation was completed at the end of February
2019. Since that time, Boxlight has continued to partner with the
district to support educators and administrators in the effective
integration of technology to support standards and instructional
priorities.
“CCPS and Boxlight have taken our partnership to another level
in response to continuity of learning requirements due to school
closures,” said Boxlight-EOS CEO Dr. Aleksandra Leis. “The EOS
program will continue to provide Clayton County Public Schools'
teachers with the training and ongoing support to help them learn
the skills and tools they need to feel comfortable and confident
delivering lessons in every possible scenario; in the classroom or
online.”
