22-OCT

Provide television based  presentation systems as an addition to  projectors for instruction.

We would like to implement a few VCR/DVD A/V carts which use televisions as the display technology to enhance classroom learning. Currently the primary means of providing visual displays in classrooms are portable projectors, which need setup and adjustment in each classroom. These carts could simply be rolled in to rooms and plugged in , providing  greater ease of use and service to our students. We are examining what specific technologies are appropriate, but the basis concept is a television, DVD/VCR and a cart to provide mobility for the units.
