Tool Explorer

Combine physical and digital worlds

Tool Explorer

Take interactivity and inclusivity to the next level. SMART’s programmable tools encourage students, including those who express themselves non-verbally, to engage in a whole new way.

Exclusive for SMART Board® interactive displays for education with iQ 4.

Inclusive access

Support engagement and expression in learners without relying on verbal language, creating an inclusive experience for every student.

• Automatic interaction. No hunting for images, selecting options or manually picking tool types. The iQ whiteboard recognizes the tools and reflects them digitally.
• Easy-to-grip. Physical stamps are accessible to those with dexterity limitations.
• Encourage contribution from students who are non-verbal or prefer multi-modal communication methods.

Differentiate learning

Students and teachers can interact with content in their own way, at their own pace. Tool Explorer empowers your SMART Board for classroom differentiation that makes a difference.

• Any subject, any expression. Use tool sets for different learning needs and abilities, providing multiple pathways through lessons.
• Customize with ease. The iQ 4 Tool Explorer app lets teachers change a tool to any image.
• Leverage popular images, included with the iQ 4 gallery folder, to easily customize cubes and stamps.
