Boxlight has partnered with Samsung to provide an impressive education bundle: classroom displays, teaching and learning software, and professional development.

As an esteemed Partner, we want you to know about exciting changes at Boxlight. Register today for our first PartnerConnect virtual event on Thursday, August 20, 2020. The event will begin at 12:00 PM Eastern and will include multiple speakers and sessions spotlighting the Boxlight vision for 2020 and beyond.

Boxlight is excited to announce that the Boxlight Store for accessories and software is now open to serve customers in the UK. We understand the need to expedite the process of purchasing accessories for your Boxlight hardware. On the homepage, simply click ‘Accessories’ and purchase items such as cables, remote controls, and stylus pens. Help educators maintain the flow of learning by having the accessories they need in one convenient place.

Boxlight is proud to announce the launch of our new Blended Learning Platform, MimioConnect®. Teachers can deliver richly interactive lessons, from a web-enabled device, for both synchronous and asynchronous learning. MimioConnect is designed to make it easier for teachers to teach and students to learn.

In an effort to improve user experience, the Partner Resources site will be consolidated from two portals – North American portal and global portal – to one. This means that users going to the old platform/site on Boxlight.com or mimio.boxlight.com will be redirected to the new site.

The new Partner Resources site has a more expansive view, making it easier to view all the Boxlight resources available thus improving user experience.

The consolidated site will include content on the new Distance Teaching Essentials (DTE) and Platform Essentials (PE) programs. These programs are designed to help educators succeed with distance learning by providing purposeful, easy to access professional development and teaching tools. 

As a friend of Boxlight and a member of the education community, we know that you are committed to keeping children learning, even when schools are closed. Our Professional Development team has been hard at work developing new resources and tools that are specifically focused on helping educators and parents transition to distance learning.

In the spirit of community, we have created Boxlight Together, the easiest way to access a curated set of courses, tools and events to support a digital learning transition. All of these resources are now and will always be free of charge.

On Boxlight Together you will find:

We are committed to keeping our schools, teachers and students safe and protected from the COVID-19 virus.

We learned that the CDC (Center for Disease Control, https://www.cdc.gov/ ) and EPA (Environmental Protection Agency, https://www.epa.gov/) have declared that 70% isopropyl alcohol is an effective product for disinfecting against COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, H1N1, and other Influenza A viruses. 

They have published registries of over 500 antimicrobial products and formulations that can be used to disinfect in which 70% isopropyl alcohol is included. 

The cleaning procedure is as follows:

1. Apply 70% isopropyl alcohol to microfiber cloth
2. Wipe down panel making sure to avoid input/output connector cavities
3. Allow to dry before touching the panel again.

We have confirmed that the 70% isoproply alcohol is safe to use on our interactive flat panel surface. In addition, 90% ethanol can also be used to disinfect the panel.

Should you have any questions, please contact the Boxlight Customer Care team at customercare@boxlight.com.

We are excited to announce that MimioStudio™ 12.2 (Windows) is now available online for download!

New for 12.2
• Support for Thai language
• Support for MimioView™ 350U document camera
• Improved text objects
• Improved scaling while importing files (Smart, Promethean, IWB, etc.)
• Improvements to PowerPoint file imports

The next planned major update is June 2020.

All end-of-life (EOL) and replacement plans are inherently tentative. If manufacturing is delayed, so is the new product introduction and the announcement of its availability. If unit sales of the current product do not meet our forecast, then we keep selling it longer than initially planned (and so on).
