Mutual

Instant collaboration with peers

Problem

How might we enable creative students learning remotely to instantaneously collaborate with one another so that they get a higher quality online learning experience?

Introducing Mutual

A collaboration device for ipad/tablet that projects a second interactive screen enabling eyetracking displays.

Interviews

In an online meeting facial expression is very important to get a glimpse of their mind. No amount of data can replace knowing students personally.

Teachers do not have any clue where exactly students are struggling.
