Transform education
Educational institutions are investing in modernizing the learning experience for their students. That means moving away from one-way, one-dimensional lectures, towards collaborative learning that thrives on interaction.
How Wacom helps
Wacom solutions for education are empowering them to do so by increasing the interactivity of lessons with the addition of digital handwritten notes and drawings to presentations. They also enable the construction of compact digital lecterns featuring easy-to-use pen-enabled devices that can be connected to projectors and web applications for interactive in-person or distance learning.

Digitizing exam completion
Equipping exam halls with pen-enabled displays allows exam papers to be created, delivered, completed, and graded 100% digitally.
Integrating the Wacom Ink SDK for verification into exam workflows also helps educational institutions confirm students’ identities. Before they start the exam, they submit a handwritten electronic signature via the pen display, which is instantly checked against a known genuine example.
The benefits of pen displays for digitizing exam halls include:
- Less waste and easier workflow management by eliminating the paper-based exam process.
- Reduced exam fraud through accurate student identity confirmation.
- Faster exam results delivery thanks to digital processing of exam papers.
- Familiar, pen-based exam completion for students.
- Minimum technology cost and effort with no device operating systems to manage, secure installation, and highly robust, reliable devices.
