Today’s schools
are changing and the incorporation of digital advances into the classroom was
inevitable and necessary. To prepare students for their future, education must
utilize the most advanced tools and techniques available.
Smartboards
Example of smartboard
A step beyond
interactive projectors are the wide range of “smartboards” being utilized in
classrooms.
Some smartboards
operate just like a whiteboard, allowing a person to write on them with real or
digital markers. Smartboards then surpass their simple whiteboard ancestors by
recording what is written or turning a digital marker line into a tangible
visual element.
Audio
enhancements
Example of audio enhancement device
For 40 years,
schools in the US have regularly experimented with some form of audio enhancements.
Historically found in auditoriums or large lecture halls, audio enhancement
equipment is finding its way into classrooms of all sizes.
Audio
enhancements refer to a suite of tools from high-quality speakers to wireless
microphones. A full system includes easy to wear microphones transmitting an
instructor’s voice to speakers in every corner of a classroom. The speakers can
also be connected to a multimedia presentation or a person joining the class
through a camera in a remote location. With quality speakers distributed around
a classroom, each student is able to hear and absorb the information being
shared.
