What is an Interactive Classroom?

Yavapai College uses Videoconferencing and Visual Communication technology from Tandberg to create and maintain a robust and reliant real-time synchronous aural and visual communications network.

A single Interactive Classroom can be connected via the industry recognized H.323 communication protocol to any other single or multiple other Interactive Classrooms and Conference rooms throughout the Yavapai College district. This technology gives educators the ability to physically teach at one campus location with complete interactivity to students on other campuses.

• Ceiling Mounted Digital Projector
• Wall Mounted Plasma Displays
• DVD/VCR Combo
• Document Camera
• PC
• Amplified Audio
• Presentation Switcher/Scaler
• IP Based Touch Panel Control System
• Ceiling or Wall mounted Student Camera
