University lecture halls are the ideal venues for hosting popular courses that attract a large number of students. The tiered seating in these lecture halls ensures that everyone has a clear view of the podium, ensuring the undivided attention of a sizable audience on the instructor or audiovisual presentation content. In order to ensure that those seated in the back rows can also see and hear the instructor clearly, these rooms employ audiovisual systems for voice amplification and projection of teaching materials onto large screens. This is where Extron comes in. We offer a variety of solutions, including audio amplification, audiovisual switching and distribution, control systems, as well as lecture capture and audiovisual system resource management. Extron products are meticulously designed, delivering highly reliable and user-friendly systems, while providing exceptional audio and video quality that enhances the learning experience for students.

The content of education should align with the evolving needs of the times. Students have been taught from an early age to prioritize teamwork, allowing each other’s strengths to be fully utilized in collaboration, as this is a widely adopted working model in modern business society. In order to support this learning environment, primary and secondary schools as well as universities are continually constructing more compact meeting rooms and collaborative spaces where group members can come together as project teams for brainstorming, exchanging ideas, and successfully implementing assigned projects.

Extron offers a range of wired and wireless audiovisual collaboration solutions that allow schools to customize compact meeting rooms based on their functional needs. With just the press of a button on the Show Me cable, our TeamWork collaboration switcher helps students display laptop content. Extron ShareLink wireless collaboration gateway enables students to share content from their personal portable devices via WiFi. Even when teachers and students want to express their ideas, Extron meets the audiovisual equipment needs of compact meeting rooms.

School auditoriums, now equipped with stage lifts, special effects lighting, and sophisticated audiovisual systems, have evolved into multifunctional artistic performance venues. They are often booked for hosting school events, community activities, as well as stage talent shows and backstage craft instruction. As part of an observatory, they can double as exhibition halls, with a large-scale video wall allowing the audience to roam through a virtual galaxy. They can also serve as museums, showcasing anything from paintings to moon rocks, and displaying multimedia information on flat-panel displays. Holding events at these venues requires professional HD-SDI video and multi-channel audio production, long-distance signal distribution, and complex signal processing. Extron’s XTP and NAV twisted pair and fiber optic switching and transmission systems are perfectly suited to meet these needs, with their powerful video image resolution converters, video wall processors, and audio DSP processors making auditoriums and exhibition halls come to life with vibrant experiences.

Remote education and flipped classrooms enable students to participate in courses anytime, anywhere, whether on or off campus. Laptops, tablets, smartphones, or smart TVs can all become virtual classrooms. Through collaboration and streaming technologies, schools can provide real-time interactive teaching, allowing remote learners to watch lectures, ask questions, and participate in discussions just as if they were in the classroom with their teacher and peers.

For those who prefer to learn at their own pace and schedule, schools offer recorded courses if they can’t attend the live classes. High-speed internet has made remote learning possible. Schools use Extron SME and VN Matrix streaming encoders, SMD media players and decoders, as well as comprehensive solutions like the Extron SMP series and StudioStation classroom capture systems to record, store, and stream courses to remote learners.
