Distance Learning - Educator Enhancements
Launched 2021
The district has invested wisely with its Learning Loss Mitigation Funding to provide teachers with an abundance of Ed Tech online applications and soon, a high-end teacher edition touch-enabled Chromebook to provide the best possible Distance Learning & Meet experiences. To accompany the new laptop, along with its fancy carrying case, is an amazing audio/video hardware device called the PolyStudio, which was introduced to alleviate some of the biggest technological concerns educators have faced in either Distance or Hybrid learning environments. The PolyStudio provides teachers either at home or in the classroom the enhanced abilities to be seen, heard, and interact with the class, without being trapped behind the webcam. The device offers a premium soundbar, 120-degree HD-camera motion tracking (it follows your movements), 6 integrated microphones, and cancels out random background noises. Teachers will have the choice of using it for home Distance Learning or as they see fit in the physical classroom.
