RESULTS
THE SHORT
Multimodality Shines as Interactive Panels Join MerlynWith over 15 million interactive panels in classrooms today, expanding Merlyn to Newline was an obvious opportunity for growth. Collaborating closely with Newline’s technology and product teams, we optimized the design to address unique challenges and ensure a seamless classroom experience.
On-panel usage eliminated the need for teachers to log in, rendering the Teacher Toolkit obsolete as a touchpoint. To bridge this gap, we redesigned the experience to incorporate built-in discovery and education moments, guiding users organically. Additionally, we optimized for touch interaction alongside voice and remote controls, ensuring an intuitive, multimodal experience for educators.
