Have you heard of Google EDA? If you’re incorporating interactive technology into your classrooms, you probably have. Google EDA can help save teachers and senior management time in the classroom with its easy-to-use technology.
It’s important to understand all your options when selecting interactive technology, and which features are going to best support your educators.
Google EDA helps keep things simple: by empowering educators and fueling student engagement, creating an environment ripe for dynamic learning experiences. And both Google and Microsoft users can benefit from a display with Google EDLA.
What is Google EDLA?
The Android EDLA (Enterprise Device Licence Agreement) administered by Google allows providers to offer technology solutions with built-in Google Mobile Services.
Unlike uncertified displays, this provides the most seamless and secure functionality for Android apps and cloud services, and access to the Google Play store. It provides seamless integration with Google and Microsoft Office 365 apps and tools, and unparalleled flexibility and accessibility. Bringing these capabilities into the classroom is an obvious choice when prioritising ease of use and teaching.

Empowering educators with easy user profiles
Enabling Google EDLA on interactive displays unlocks boundless possibilities. Individual user profiles enable teachers to change the display from the default setup to exactly how they need it, just like you’d set up your phone or tablet. Launch a lesson from the Google Drive widget with one click, view your Outlook calendar from your home screen, get your students moving with the Spotify widget, share lessons via email and cloud storage, and more. A secure sign-on ensures that sensitive student data remains protected, fostering a secure digital environment conducive to learning.
Profiles use teachers' existing Google or Microsoft credentials, saving time for administrators. This also means that authentication is handled by the school's trusted identity provider and utilises security features like multi-factor authentication to secure other organisational information.
Easy to collaborate, create, and present on!
Education apps
Whether you use Google or Microsoft, official access to the Google Play Store allows you to seamlessly use all your Android tools and apps natively, including Google Workspace and Microsoft Office 365.
Installing popular apps like Minecraft Education, Classdojo, Khan Academy, or even Duolingo directly onto the display gives educators a wealth of content to captivate student interest and accommodate diverse learning styles – and it looks cool, too!
Enhanced device security and flexibility
Keeping student and teacher data safe is paramount. Google EDLA offers an extra layer of enhanced protection. Regular Android updates and proactive monitoring provide additional protections against app vulnerabilities through Google Play Protect.
EDLA provides schools with the ability to use device profiles that utilise your existing Google and Microsoft credentials and security features, adding key security features like multi-factor authentication to your display profile sign-in.
