KLIK from KLIKBoks

14 November 2024 at 14:30

KLIK is an exciting and innovative tool for educators. This cool tool is a hybrid collaboration, conferencing, and content sharing system. Say goodbye to costly and complicated ‘room’ systems. Video conferences have found their home with KLIK. Start the meeting on your laptop, then connect to the room’s display, camera and sound system for exceptional video, audio and seamless collaboration using your favorite video conferencing platform.

Educators can also share more content in Ultra-High Definition. With the HUB’s 4K video output, even a giant screen will render crystal-clear images across up to 4 shared content tiles. Switch instantly between split-screen and Fullscreen modes to get a closer view, & share everything with a hybrid team.

With KLIK, there is also wireless collaboration with integrated control. Control who has access to the screen and what they can share to it. As the moderator, you can preview any user’s content before adding it to the screen, then minimize, maximize and stop their content sharing remotely or from a touch screen.

It is one hardware device with all the features, and purpose-built for high performance and always-on reliability, backed by a 5-Year warranty, and the best support in the industry. Here are some of its key features and benefits:

  1. Content Organization: KLIK helps teachers organize all their digital content efficiently. This means no more scrambling to find lesson materials or worrying about keeping everything in one place.
  2. Enhanced Engagement: One of the biggest challenges for teachers is keeping students engaged. KLIK addresses this by making it easier to share content in an interactive way. Students can collaborate, annotate, and interact with the material, which makes learning more fun and engaging.
  3. Flexibility and Accessibility: With KLIK, teachers can adapt to different teaching environments, whether it’s in-person, hybrid, or remote. It ensures that learning can happen seamlessly no matter where the students are.
  4. Cost-Effective: KLIK also considers the needs of school administrators. By streamlining content management and reducing operating costs, it becomes a cost-effective solution for educational institutions.
  5. Knowledge Base: The ability to create a knowledge base of reference material in the cloud is a valuable feature. It means that students can access resources even after the lesson is over, promoting continuous learning.
  6. Live Streaming: Live streaming classes is a fantastic way to make education more accessible. Students who may not be able to attend in person can still participate and reference the lessons later.

KLIK is a comprehensive solution that not only simplifies content management for teachers but also significantly enhances student engagement and accessibility.

For these reasons and more, KLIK earned a Cool Tool Award (finalist) for “Best Classroom Management Solution” as part of The EdTech Awards 2024 from EdTech Digest. Learn more.
