Interactive classroom solutions from Promethean have enabled a group of children aged 6-13 from the UK and China to participate in a live Mandarin and English lesson.
The link-up, which took place yesterday (5 June), was part of John Hutton's trip to China to demonstrate the use of technology by British firms in China.
The pupils participated in a language lesson, learning the names of shapes in English and Mandarin via their Promethean Activboards, which are interactive whiteboards.
