HOW WE TEST
We used a high-tech machine to wipe the various surfaces of our products with a saturated cloth at 350g force (that’s a lot!). A product inspection was conducted every 100 wipes (to simulate a month of 5 daily wipes—multiplied by 20 school days).
WHAT WE TEST FOR
2700 wipes. That’s equivalent to 5 classroom sessions a day, 180 classroom days a year—the highest in the US—with a 3-year warranty. It could also mean two cleanings a day for 365 days and a 3-year warranty, bringing us to 2,200 wipes. This surpasses home-use products.
WHAT WE TEST WITH
A ratio of 70% Isopropyl alcohol to 30% water, as found in common cleaning solutions. Other alcohols cause damage, and bleach is not recommended by the CDC.
BASED ON…
Industry standards and recommendations set by these folks: the American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists (AATCC), American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)—not to mention Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
HEAR & BE HEARD
Whether needing to block out background noise to focus more diligently or needing to make sure peers and teachers hear clearly, a headset with an integrated mic goes a long way toward setting students up for success.
TYPE FREELY
From typing essays to taking notes in class and more, the easier a keyboard is for students to use, the more they can focus on what matters—their learning content, not their tools.
WORK YOUR WAY
Giving students a choice in how to interact with learning material can make them feel more confident and remove artificial barriers to success. Different inputs support personal preferences, motor skill development stages, and the task at hand.
SEE & BE SEEN
Students and teachers can use standalone webcams to facilitate group homework projects by easily moving the camera to share work without needing to move their Chromebook or tablet. The image quality ensures everyone is seen clearly.
