The technological 'companion' that helps students in a nautical school


The Clevertouch Impact monitor, distributed by Charmex, is the new companion for the students of the Polaris Nautika Eskola sailing school in Algorta (Bizkaia). Héctor García, manager of the school, tells us how they use it.

The Polaris Nautika Eskola sailing school prepares students to obtain different nautical-sports qualifications such as a navigation license or a pleasure boat or yacht skipper. To encourage dynamism and collaboration, students have the 75” Clevertouch Impact interactive monitor, distributed by Charmex and thanks to the advice of Dinof , and which has been designed to meet both the needs of the digital environment and those of the conventional classroom.

Throughout the classes, the students focus, for example, on the different problems that may arise in navigation, something that is complemented by the resolution of doubts about the rest of the topics. “We focus, not on passing the exam that we are sure the students will achieve, but on learning, on the practical application of the content learned and on agility in solving problems, which is perhaps the main stumbling block of the test.

The mission of the center is that students learn to navigate safely and for this they offer entertaining theoretical classes, with audiovisual content and oriented to learning through practice. They also have access to an online classroom where they have useful teaching material, whether they have not been able to attend class or need to practice, with various test-type questions, as the course progresses.

The aim is that, in addition to obtaining the degree, learning is applicable when they are at sea”, says Héctor García Calvo, manager of the school.

And that's where the Clevertouch Impact pen display comes in. “The class not only gains in interactivity with the students when it comes to solving doubts and problems, but also allows us to share with them the annotations and resolutions that are made on the screen. The interaction is absolute, both with the Blackboard application and with the LUX 8.0 interface. In addition, both tools provide links to the browser to display information from the internet”, explains García.

“Our students are delighted with the new class format”

Clevertouch Impact monitors provide an intuitive and collaborative experience. “Its LUX 8.0 interface is easy to use, thanks to simple, quick apps and gestures developed to make everyday tasks seamless. It also has audiovisual material from different sources and great state-of-the-art connectivity”, concludes García.
