Transformative Innovation: ICS & LG Technologies Partnership Shapes Future of Learning
Focused on the relentless pursuit of excellence in education, Indian Creek sought to bring cutting-edge, user-friendly innovation into all classrooms. As cost is often a deterrent from major technology enhancements, ICS Educational Technology Director Sara White reached out to LG Technologies to explore their CreateBoard model as an affordable, user-friendly, interactive smartboard. LG responded by donating models of the device to ICS and asking for feedback from the faculty. After months of use, an LG team from Korea visited ICS to better understand the teachers’ needs. Based on the Creek suggestions, LG modified their existing boards to better suit the classroom, then released a newer version of the CreateBoard which incorporated many of Indian Creek’s recommendations. LG then generously replaced all Indian Creek’s previous edition boards with these new, feature-rich versions. Recognizing a unique opportunity, Sara pitched the idea of a partnership between LG and Indian Creek.
LG loved the idea, and a collaborative partnership began shortly after. Sara had the honor of becoming the first LG Educator in the national LG Schools program. This role allows her to visit the LG Business Innovation Center, to explore cutting-edge educational technologies and test new products.
The partnership with LG has been transformative, bringing cutting-edge technology and innovative learning spaces to Indian Creek. The collaboration has had a significant positive impact on students from PK- 12. ICS anticipates being named the first “LG School” in the country in the coming year.
