Barco's weConnect Virtual classroom solution offers a unique learning experience for remote students. It allows participants worldwide to interact in real time with one another and with the teacher, as if they were all in one classroom. The solution’s unique configuration allows the participants to view all of the other participants through an interactive web page, which encourages communication, virtual hand-raising and collaboration in sub-teams.
The custom user interfaces offer more options for the students to be aware of their fellow participants in their virtual classroom. The teacher sees a large display wall containing student video (not just a camera). All this helps improve engagement and - together with a number of rapid camera switches - lengthens attention spans to levels like those of a live interactive class.
Every virtual classroom is a unique and custom-made project, based on your requirements. Contact us for more information.
