The Challenge
For institutes of medical education, the Coronavirus represents a unique challenge.
On one hand, the students being trained would be an invaluable asset in combating the spread of the virus but on the other hand, many of the educators were medical professionals themselves who were needed at the frontlines.
It thus become imperative for institutions like the Niigata College of Medical Technology to employ a solution that would allow for the organizing and distribution of vast amounts of teaching materials.
In order to keep lessons running smoothly and to maintain social distancing, the institute also required a simple and powerful video conferencing solution that was primed for remote learning across multiple device types.

In particular, Lark’s Doc feature was praised for allowing educators to store, organize and disseminate a lot of training materials while at the same time allowing students a simple platform to complete and submit assignments in a private & secure environment.
Also of note to the institute was Lark’s powerful video conferencing solution which helped bring the classroom experience to students virtually thanks to innovations like Magic Share.
