Enhance Education with Instant Connectivity
Designed with education in mind, this attachable monitor features the same screen size and resolution as the Chromebook models found in most classrooms. It’s also built for ease of use, thanks to a convenient single-cord connection. Teachers and students can simply attach, power up, and go.

Promote Collaborative Classrooms
With this 270° rotating monitor, it’s a snap for students to mirror their screens to share with their teachers, collaborate with classmates on group projects, or take notes while engaging with online resources or textbooks.
