ViewSonic is offering myViewBoard for free to K12, colleges and universities for the coronavirus outbreak time.

"As a stakeholder in the education sector, we wanted to make sure we're doing our part in supporting schools, educators, students and parents in this very trying time, especially those without access to distance learning," said James Chu, CEO of ViewSonic. "While some schools with pre-existing capabilities have already implemented distance learning during school closures, many more have been caught off guard by the Coronavirus and have had to cease all in-person classes."

myViewBoard enables teachers to conduct distance learning through an open and agnostic platform, facilitating students and their learning outcomes wherever they happen to be. It is easy to use and allows real-time collaboration through video audio conferencing, huddles and digital whiteboarding, supporting a variety of pedagogies with an emphasis on virtual classroom.
