When many lessons—and many technologies—are integrated into a single classroom, the results can be astonishing. SAGE's educational installations often focus on interactive whiteboards from PolyVision. eno leads the classroom technology charge, providing a resilient ceramic-steel surface for traditional dry-erase markers, magnets and bluetooth styli function. Students can learn, solve and do, all on an environmentally-friendly interface that requires no direct power and no cables. eno is available in a variety of aspect ratios, as well as rapid-installation ("click") and chalk- and tack-board integration ("flex") versions. Finally, classrooms can employ the eno "mini" slate, which requires no batteries, shrugs off almost every sort of damage, and uses the same interchangable bluetooth stylus as its parent. It's intuitive, it's inexpensive, it's simple, and it's changing the way that Pennsylvania schools teach.
SANYO projectors throw images, videos and games from computers and DVD players. They can also pull from document cameras (such as the Lumens DC210), which feature optical and digital zoom, note capture and the ability to save and store on-screen images. Whether comparing and contrasting themes, excerpting from a book, or conducting a live dissection, these devices can show students what a big deal the little things can be. Gooseneck lamps and HDMI output keep lessons sharp and clear, and portable versions can be matched to A/V carts for classrooms to share.
But today's generation craves interaction, and a good lesson gives it to them. Audience response systems from Qwizdom inspire, engage and motivate the students that use them. Teachers can pose problems and direct presentations from their tablets, then sift data as the class answers, true/false, multiple choice, yes/no, sequencing, numeric or even short-answer questions. Student remotes are both durable and inexpensive. The result: streamlined, instantly appraisable quizzes, instruction and feedback.
Classroom control systems from Crestron and Extron streamline processes and save energy, automating routine tasks like projector shutdown (extending bulb life expectancy). Your IT staff can monitor status and manually shut down devices over the LAN. VBrick video distribution delivers educational content on-demand for distance learners, letting teachers build their media libraries and transplant their classes to any topic. Your school can engage breaking events in real-time, collaborating and participating with satellite campuses or even other institutions. Broadcast, share and learn.
