DisplayNote and Samsung have teamed up to introduce new technology into U.S. schools.

DisplayNote said it will embed its screen-sharing software, Montage, into select Samsung interactive displays. The technology is designed to help districts create consistent, reliable learning environments at scale and improve the day-to-day classroom experience.

DisplayNote Montage is designed for shared teaching and learning spaces. The software enables teachers and students to share content quickly from a wide range of devices through native apps, AirPlay, Miracast and Google Cast.

According to DisplayNote, the platform also supports cross-network connectivity, touchback control, moderator control and local connection options, helping classrooms run more efficiently.

Teachers can walk into a classroom, connect quickly and begin teaching without spending lesson time troubleshooting cables, settings or incompatible devices.

Dr. Micah Shippee, director of education, Samsung Electronics America, said:
“As school leaders work to improve classroom engagement across a wide variety of hardware and software ecosystems, there is a growing need for technology that strengthens the connection between teachers and students. When these solutions are intuitive and prove a consistent workflow across diverse devices, it reduces time spent managing tools and allows more time for guided discussions and meaningful collaboration. Through the integration of DisplayNote with our Interactive Displays, we’re helping to build a single tool that facilitates more active learning into classrooms and better equips educators to support positive student outcomes.”

Ed Morgan, CEO of DisplayNote, said:
“Too often, classroom technology still creates friction for the people it is supposed to support. Teachers need to be able to walk into a room and start the lesson with confidence, while IT teams need solutions that can be deployed and managed consistently at scale. By combining Samsung’s reach in education with DisplayNote’s software experience layer, we are helping schools create classrooms that simply work better, every day.”

The solution is now available in the United States on Samsung WAFX and WAFX-P Interactive Display models.
