Dow Jones Description
PolyVision's distinction as the leader of innovation for visual communication products dates back to 1954, when the company began manufacturing "Greensteel" brand products. In recent years, PolyVision has made several strategic acquisitions of visual communication companies to expand its product portfolio, including Aubecq (Crespin, France); Pentagon (Odense, Denmark); and Alliance (both Belgian and U.S. operations); as well as six key acquisitions in the U.S. In November 2001, PolyVision was acquired by Steelcase Inc. (www.steelcase.com) and became a member of the worldwide Steelcase Design Partnership, a collection of independent companies unified by a commitment to workplace effectiveness through the harmonious integration of architecture, furniture, and technology. Headquartered in Norcross, Georgia, USA, PolyVision continues its long history of innovation on the global front as a multi-national manufacturer and installer of visual communication products for the education, corporate, and government/military markets.

Teaching is about connecting for Amanda Oneth; being a part of helping students make learning connections is what makes it gratifying. As a fourth grade teacher, Amanda worked to create a classroom environment where students enjoyed learning, and where each student received the attention needed to succeed. In her work with PolyVision, Amanda helps teachers use interactive tools effectively and efficiently in their classrooms. She has a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Oklahoma. In addition to her work in the classroom, Amanda has spent several summers teaching students at a science camp. Her lessons on projectiles always delivered a blast, giving Amanda a reason to consider herself a "rocket scientist." Those who work with Amanda can expect her to bring a skilled approach to integrating technology in the classroom. As a teacher, Amanda understood how the use of technology helped her run the classroom more smoothly, giving her the time she needed to work one-on-one with students or in small groups. Her goal is to help other teachers experience those benefits as they engage students in learning.
