This notable school in Spain innovates classrooms with Interactive Displays to Boost

San Vicente de Paúl School

A school with over 125 years of history continues to encourage collaborative learning with the multi-functional Clevertouch® IMPACT display.

The Challenge

The San Vicente de Paúl School (Limpias, Cantabria, Spain) provides Early Childhood, Primary, and Secondary education to the surrounding communities. The school has long been a proponent of using digital media to innovate learning experiences for their learners. Antonio Medina, Director of San Vicente de Paúl School, stated, “(We are) applying training and innovation in our educational work, emphasizing new technologies and languages.” The ongoing aim of this is to support students strengthening their skills. “(The intention is) that the students discover and enhance their physical, emotional, intellectual and attitudinal skills, assuming their own qualities and limitations,” added Medina. San Vicente de Paúl School was always on the lookout for technology to innovate student learning. This is when Clevertouch Technologies’ solutions were introduced.

Key Solutions

In its continuing endeavor to improve the teaching and learning experience through the use of new and cuttingedge technologies, San Vicente de Paúl invested in the Clevertouch IMPACT interactive displays. With the help of Clevertouch partner, Charmex AV Technology and distributor Elematica de Cantabria, IMPACT interactive displays were installed in some secondary classrooms. After an initial training on the basics of the interactive display, including practical examples and uses, the staff was ready to start.

Thus far, there has been positive feedback regarding the innovative features of the IMPACT displays such as helping teachers save time when planning classes because of the considerable number of resources and learning activities available with the display solution. Cleverstore, included free with the IMPACT, makes available hundreds of educational apps that are vetted and are aligned with key learning objectives.
