Spotlight Session - The Age of Touch: Is Your Content Relevant in the 21st Century?

Monday, June 7
6:00 - 6:20 pm

What do the iPhone, iPad and SMART Board™ interactive whiteboard have in common? It’s touch! All three use intuitive gesture-based interfaces to improve the user experience. Just like we’ve seen with iPhones and iPads, adoption of SMART Board interactive whiteboards is exploding.  According to Futuresource Consulting, interactive whiteboards will be in more than 50 percent of U.S. classrooms by 2012. By the same year, interactive response systems, another classroom technology product, will be used in over 13 percent of classrooms. With interactive technology being adopted at such an overwhelming rate, publishers need to ensure content is created with new instructional methodologies in mind.

In this 20-minute session, Emilio Bernabei, Director, Ecosystem and Marketing Operations at SMART, will share his insights into how publishers can differentiate their content by adding interactivity and automating assessment data capture. He will also discuss proven strategies for revenue growth that use platform-agnostic content delivery systems, making content ubiquitous across many leading interactive whiteboard brands.
