Wacom pen and display tablets provide an intuitive, reliable and innovative way to digitalise remote and in-classroom learning experiences.
With pen technology, students and educators can interact more collaboratively, regardless of location. Whether classes are conducted online or in person, educators can continue teaching just as they normally do on a traditional whiteboard. At the same time, students can take notes more dynamically while retaining the enhanced learning effect of handwriting.
They work seamlessly with existing learning management systems like Google Classrooms and other software applications, enabling teachers to provide feedback on assignments, communicate intuitively at home or in class, and allow students to interact with their teachers and peers more collaboratively.
Wacom has a wide range of pen devices, from wireless pen tablets to large displays that meet any classroom’s needs. Here’s a list of Wacom tablets that suits any school's budget and teaching style.
Great for first-time tablet users – One by Wacom
Sketch, draw and edit photos with a completely natural pen experience. The One by Wacom tablet has everything students need to get started. It's responsive, lightweight, and perfectly balanced, allowing students to use it comfortably all day.
With a 2048 pen pressure level, One by Wacom offers students responsive control and accuracy. It's also ergonomic, catering to both right and left-handed users.
Available in two sizes, students can choose the model that best suits their needs. The smaller model is portable, taking up only a tiny amount of desk space, which gives students plenty of workspace to create and annotate. The medium-size model offers a larger digital canvas, giving students plenty of room to express their creativity. Both sizes are compact enough to easily slip into a laptop bag.
It’s easy to dive right into schoolwork. Connect the One by Wacom to a Chromebook with a plug-in and play USB, and students are good to go.
One by Wacom can be used with most creative software applications, including popular learning programs and platforms on PC, Mac and Chromebook.
For creative beginners - Wacom Intuos
Students can explore more ways to get creative with the Wacom Intuos. With a light, super-accurate pen to suit any student's creative style, Intuos is built to bring even the wildest ideas to life.
The first thing students notice when using the Intuos tablet is how natural it feels. Thanks to the electromagnetic resonance (EMR) technology, the battery-free pen with 4096 pen pressure sensitivity delivers better precision and control. At the same time, the Intuos features a larger active drawing area, more than 75% of the tablet's width, allowing 100 lines per mm of pen recognition on the tablet.
Compared to the One by Wacom, the Intuos is also available in small and medium sizes with Bluetooth connectivity on selected models, meaning students can easily connect the tablet with a click of a button.
The tablet's features include a dynamic built-in pen tray that stops the pen from rolling off the tablet and four customisable shortcuts.
Super slim and compact – The Wacom Intuos is just 8.8mm thin. It's slim and sleek as a smartphone so it won't take up too much room on the desk.

With 8192 levels of pen sensitivity and tilt recognition, the Pro Pen 2 is engineered to push limits, honing the finest details and offering the unique pen technology experience artists and designers love.
The Intuos Pro is available in three sizes. The small is a portable tablet with no compromise on quality. The medium-size option is compact with a larger active area. The largest model of the Intuos Pro family offers the most freedom with the largest active drawing area.
