Kenny Wu, ClassIn Product Marketing Manager, Americas, EEO

F: Could you please tell us about ClassIn?

A: ClassIn is all about empowering teachers and students to achieve their full potential. We were formed in 2014 with the mission of pioneering technology to redefine the future of education. That means using technology to build better learning environments, including software that improves instruction across all learning modalities and innovative, effective classroom spaces designed for hybrid and distance learning. Today, we partner with 80,000+ education institutions in 160 countries around the world, and 50 million teachers, administrators and students use our technology to teach, learn, and work more effectively.

In terms of technology, we offer a comprehensive set of future-looking digital and classroom education solutions. These include our Interactive Virtual Classroom, which is a powerful teaching and learning environment with immersive and interactive features such as breakout sessions, hand raising, discussion forums, resource libraries and a virtual lab. Then we have TeacherIn, a comprehensive toolkit which helps teachers prepare lesson plans, search for engaging and relevant educational content and resources, and collaborate with team members. Finally, our LMS and cloud drive gives teachers and students a single point of access to streamed classes and pre-recorded classes and materials.

F: Can you tell us how technology innovation is driving evolution in teaching and learning?

A: Educational technologies are removing the barriers of geography, giving more students access to high quality instruction. New technologies, like ClassIn, allow teachers and students from all over to connect in meaningful ways, reducing the stress of finding the right instructional talent in the right location to offer a specific class or topic for students. This has also helped provide more flexibility for students and families who are looking for hybrid and remote learning options.

Technology also allows educators to transition from a 'one-size-fits-all' model where all students are expected to go at the same speed with the same materials to a more personalized and learner-centric approach. Each student can access remediation and enrichment resources that help them achieve their learning objectives. This means teachers can start to focus on meeting the individual needs of students.

While educational technology is changing education in many ways – these two, geography and personalization, are doing the most to improve quality and accessibility – delivering major economic and social benefits worldwide.

F: Why did you decide to integrate ClassIn with Hikvision hardware in particular?

A: The fact that Hikvision offers a range of high-performing and reliable hardware devices for the education sector – including interactive flat panels – means that we can optimize teacher and student experiences when using ClassIn. It also means we can deliver a comprehensive and seamless solution for classroom, hybrid and virtual teaching and learning, which is a very compelling proposition for our institutional clients.

Ultimately, our partnership with Hikvision helps us achieve our broader goals in terms of breaking down physical barriers and extending access to good quality educational content, helping to improve accessibility and reduce inequality in education.

F: How was the process of integrating ClassIn with Hikvision hardware products?

A: Actually, it was a very smooth process! Hikvision gave us all the comprehensive documentation we needed to integrate ClassIn with Hikvision's HikCentral software platform and the different Hikvision hardware lines, and we were able to undertake the required work very quickly. We also have a dedicated technical contact at Hikvision who is very responsive and on call to help with any issues that come up.

F: What are the overall educational outcomes that can be improved for institutions that deploy ClassIn with Hikvision hardware solutions?

ClassIn is designed to work on an array of hardware devices – not just traditional PCs. For example, schools can display resources from ClassIn on interactive flat panels that run on Microsoft Windows while students can access its full capabilities from their tablets or phones. This combination of leading hardware and software means that institutions can improve their teaching and learning outcomes in three key ways.

First, ClassIn’s powerful interactive classroom app, installed on a Hikvision interactive flat panel, can help teachers improve their instruction with an infinitely scrolling blackboard, engagement resources that can be sent directly to student devices in real time, and multiple customizable presentation configurations.

Second, ClassIn and Hikvision support hybrid and virtual teaching and learning models that can help to improve the accessibility of education for previously underserved or marginalized students or geographical areas.

Third, Hikvision and ClassIn solutions help institutions increase their operational efficiency. Ease of use means less time is needed to work through technology issues. Additionally, the reliability of Hikvision devices supports the rigours of daily teaching and learning, even in the busiest institutions.
