Classroom Technology Trends

Summer was a very busy time for us this year - we spent much of it getting local high schools & universities ready for this time of year - back to school!

We noticed an increase in the need for more classrooms in general & more technology locally but now that things have slowed down a bit and we are catching up on our reading we have realized that it seems to be a trend nationwide as well! 

This article (link below) makes a great point - the recession seems to have encouraged many people to head back to school which means that the schools have to keep up when it comes to enough space and the classroom technology to keep up with new students. 

Also, because graduating students are entering companies that so have the latest technology, it is now even more important that schools keep up. 

Check out this article form Sound & Video Contractor on the Top Four Trends in Classroom Technology. They include: 

• Bigger Pictures and Sound
• Enhanced Audio
• Video Capture
• I/T is more important than ever!

Back to school with the latest classroom technology

Can you believe it's that time of year again? Students are heading back to school again here in Charlottesville and at the University of Virginia. Thank you to the Darden Graduate School of Business for trusting the AV Company to provide classroom technology for the Darden Executive Education Program! We also just finished upgrading the technology in their second year classrooms to support record enrollment for this coming year.
