Teacher and students working on Main Learning Display (MLD)

What is an MLD?

The Main Learning Display (MLD) is an interactive digital system that replaces traditional teaching displays such as a whiteboard or projector.

The standard MLD setup consists of an interactive panel, a Mini PC, a webcam and a wireless keyboard and mouse.

With powerful speakers and a large screen, you can present a wide variety of learning materials, use digital inking tools to annotate directly on the screen, connect to cloud-based applications and enable students to interact with their learning in new ways.
