What are the best practices for designing the higher ed classroom for the future?

The director of the product marketing at NETGEAR is a thought leader.

Modern learning is no longer limited to simple websites, face-to-face communication, and low-bandwidth content, but includes real-time video chat, HD streaming, and next- generation learning technology. Higher education needs to level the playing field between remote and on-campus students by embracing the use of audio and video over internet protocol.

To level the playing field between remote and on-campus students, there’s a critical need in higher education to embrace AV over IP, providing high-quality, low-latency video and audio distribution with increased scalability." —John Henkel, Director of SMB Product Marketing at NETGEAR

Smaller institutions that don't have an IT manager need to be more efficient, reliable, and easy to use with their audiovisual equipment. It is possible for admins to add switches whenever and wherever they need. As needs change, end-to-end collaboration and scaling are ensured. To make it easy for higher education organizations, companies such as Crestron, Q-SYS, and Shure offer a one-stop shop for audiovisual products, with tailored installation and management solutions.

Technology has had to change as more and more campuses include local and remote students. This change is happening across the corporate world as well. Tools developed for one market can be used for the other. The audiovisual installation needs to be ready for the future.
