Co-founded by CEO and President Krzysztof Pietroszek and VP and CIO Darren Abramson, an Associate Professor at Dalhousie University, NetClick.me engages shy students, inspires active students, and gives educators the instant, in-class feedback they need to foster excellence. NetClick lets educators tweak their pre-existing slides to make them interactive and share them across students' devices. Abramson and Pietroszek developed NetClick technology following collaboration in the Human-Computer Interaction laboratory at the University of Waterloo.
