MagicBox™ Technology Integration Partners: Apps to Ease Education Delivery

Famous English poet John Donne once said, “No man is an island.” This quote holds true not just for human beings, but also for learning and publishing platforms. 

Learning Experience Platforms (LXPs) cannot be seen as standalone systems, but part of a larger digital ecosystem. It is the robustness of this ecosystem that reduces manual tasks, saves time and provides a wide range of features and facilities to ease the delivery of education.

The way to create a sound digital learning ecosystem is through thoughtful integration of apps. This is exactly what MagicBox™ offers. The aim is to provide a smooth and unparalleled experience to all, students, publishers and educators.

Some of the essential integrations available on the MagicBox™ platform are:

• Students can find all the information in at a single place.
• Teachers save time by preventing login issues.
• Teachers can prepare personalized pages of digital content for each class.

Clever Rostering

Clever also provides automated services for secure rostering. This reduces errors, saves time, and makes information more secure.

Clever Badges

Clever badges allow even the youngest learners to go through lessons without any help. With young students, there is no need to remember passwords and usernames to log in. Instead, they just have to hold up a badge to the laptop’s webcam.

With Google Classroom, students and teachers can access assignments, feedback and course material from anywhere and on any device.

By integrating this app with MagicBox™, teachers can print assessments directly from the digital learning platform, along with the corresponding answer, for student assessment. It also has form code identifiers, which remove the need to enter assignment, period and class information, or student IDs for each student form.

GradeCam provides instant feedback and actionable data that helps students improve their performance, while letting teachers know who needs support.
