Widget themes for screens
Every class is different, and your screens should match your style and your students’ needs. Widget themes let you easily change how your classroom screens look. Choose from white, glass, dark, or color styles, pick accent colors, and select easy-to-read fonts. Your timers, instructions, polls, and other widgets will always be clear and engaging.
Changing widget themes takes just a click, whether you want a calm look for morning meetings or bold colors for group work. This helps you create the right mood and keep students focused. All themes are designed to be clear and readable on any projector or display.
