Students can't see
Low vision, distance, glare, obstructed sightlines and small handwriting mean board content simply doesn't arrive. Students who are blind, have low vision or are deaf and rely on visual context lose the lesson at the source.
ACCESSIBILITY
ShareTheBoard makes handwritten teaching legible, interactive and self-paced for every student — a transformative accommodation alternative that costs less than the support it replaces.
THE EXPLICIT PROBLEM
Both halves of the problem come from the same place — the board is the only part of the classroom that was never made accessible.
Low vision, distance, glare, obstructed sightlines and small handwriting mean board content simply doesn't arrive. Students who are blind, have low vision or are deaf and rely on visual context lose the lesson at the source.
If you cannot read what's on the board you cannot question it, correct it or build on it. Accessibility gaps quietly remove students from the discussion long before they fall behind on the content.
Interpreters, note-takers and captioning all lag behind a fast-moving board. Students spend the session copying blind, or catching up on someone else's notes, instead of thinking.
One-to-one support is expensive, difficult to staff and never covers every class. Specialist equipment needs training that busy teaching staff never get. Provision reaches a handful of students, not the cohort.
WHAT SHARETHEBOARD SOLVES
Legibility, participation, pace and cost — the four things every accessibility programme is trying to fix at the board.
LEGIBILITY GUARANTEED
Board View streams a high-contrast, vector-quality version of the board to each student's own device, and Content Overlay keeps the teacher's writing readable on top of anything projected.
EVERYONE ENGAGED
Students don't just watch the board — they annotate it, ask about a specific spot on it and stay in the same conversation as everyone else in the room.
AT YOUR OWN PACE
Board Memory keeps every board as a timestamped record, so students who process differently can review the exact moment they missed and take notes without racing.
TRANSFORMATIVE AND AFFORDABLE
One room-level deployment serves every student in every session — reducing spend on scribes, note-takers, enlarged print and bespoke arrangements, and cutting the administration around them.
OUR DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
Teaching is hard enough. Any accessibility tool that adds preparation, in-class operation or training will be abandoned within a term — no matter how good it is.
So ShareTheBoard does the work invisibly. It functions as assistive technology for the students who need it, and as a better board for everyone else.
Our philosophy is that accessibility must not add work. Teachers write on the board exactly as they always have — nothing to operate, nothing to remember.
ShareTheBoard works as assistive technology for the students who need it, while remaining invisible to the flow of the class.
Nobody is singled out. The whole room gets the same accessible board, which is what a higher standard of teaching actually looks like.
FOR EVERY DECISION-MAKER
ShareTheBoard answers the questions that matter most — to students, staff and the people responsible for provision.
Accommodations usually depend on staffing, timetabling and paperwork. Room-level accessibility removes all three from the critical path.
A scalable alternative to scribes, note-takers and enlarged print — deployed once, available in every class.

FROM THE PEOPLE USING IT
“ShareTheBoard is effortless for the professor to use, works seamlessly in the background, and makes whiteboard content easier for all students to access during and after class.”
“Students who could never read the board now follow the lesson in real time — and nobody has to be singled out for it.”
“It replaced arrangements we could only ever offer to a few students with something that works for the whole cohort.”
