Higher Education — A Cornerstone of KONTEK’s Work for More Than 30 Years
Thoughtfully Designed and Skillfully Integrated A/V is Transformative
As more and more Higher Education institutions move towards a hyflex model -- where students have the option of in-person, remote, synchronous, asynchronous, active, small group, and project-based learning – we’re seeing educators boldly stepping up to try new methods of teaching.
It’s KONTEK’s job to make sure the technology is properly designed, deployed, and commissioned to meet the exact needs of each room’s users.
With video conferencing baked into nearly every cell phone on the market, we’ve all come to expect this capacity to come easily. And we agree! We aim to design systems that require zero training. An educator should be able to walk into any KONTEK room and find the functionality to be intuitive, simple, and effective. And the students should find the system as easy to interact with as the tech they're sharing with their friends.
Still, we know that hyflex learning presents unique and significant challenges:
How do we create parity between the students in the room and the students calling in?
How do we design the microphone and speaker arrays so that everyone participating can hear and be heard?
How do we integrate recording for the asynchronous students who will be watching the lectures later?
KONTEK has decades of experience answering these questions.
Our best practices have evolved right alongside the technology. We are ever-ready for the next great innovation.
If you are interested in learning more about the technology behind hyflex learning – or you have a different educational model in need of thoughtful consideration – we want to hear from you.
