Modern School is synonymous with quality
education and is a pioneer for introducing all-round development to foster
an all-round growth in its wards. It is the first private school in India, established
in the year 1920. Modern School offers curriculum from grades 6-12 with a vision
for excellence that provides a combination of the traditional Indian educational
system with modern educational techniques and is often described as the most
famous private school in India.
“The AVerVision visualizer is a really useful tool in the classroom,
enabling the efficient utilization of resources which could not otherwise have been
used”
- Mr. Sarkar, Head of the Computer Department, Modern School
Mr. Gautam Sarkar is the head of the computer science department at Modern School.
Ever since he started using the AVerVision
CP150 visualizer (document camera),
he found that it can do much more for a classroom than just displaying documents.
Now the CP150 is constantly
connected to his computer and projector so that it is available for any need which
may arise during a lesson.
“The AVerVision visualizer has enhanced the capabilities of the students as
well as the teachers”
- Mr. Sarkar, Head of the Computer Department, Modern School
For Mr. Sarkar, the visualizer
(document camera) has become
an essential part of his classroom. He uses it every day to teach lessons on programming,
numeracy and design. Its flexible gooseneck has been quite helpful in adjusting
to achieve different angles and positions to capture and record images of classroom
presentations. Operating the AVerVision
visualizer (document camera)
was so easy that other teachers have also started using it in their classes. As
for Mr. Sarkar, the advantage is that it occupies less space than an overhead projector
and is lightweight & portable, which makes it easily accessible within school.
“The instant sharing of text, graphics & 3-D objects makes impromptu teaching
possible in the classroom”
- Mr. Sarkar, Head of the Computer Department, Modern School
The AVerVision visualizer
(document camera) has made
a great impact on daily classroom teaching at Modern School. During computer classes,
intricate formulas of programming that are not so easy to explain on the board, are
very simple to explain with the visualizer
(document camera) by magnifying
particular documents or images and then making important notes and highlights while
discussing it with the students.
The sharing of class material has become so easy that students are able to see their
own works and projects displayed instantly for the whole class to view, which is
an added advantage to best meet lesson objectives. Students can get instant feedback
on their works from other students. Thus, it helps develop student’s presentation
skill as well as inspire interactivity and discussion among them in the classroom,
including those students who never speak up. The sharing of a book’s content
and minute details of 3-D objects such as RAM and processors has become very easy
now that teachers have started using the
visualizer (document camera).
Mr. Sarkar remarked, "We are always keen to use modern technology to enhance
the existing teaching techniques and having an
AVerVision visualizer (document
camera) has greatly enhanced the capabilities of the teachers at Modern
School. It has made teaching much simpler, more effective and interesting. The
AVerVision visualizer (document
camera) is worth using in classroom teaching, and we desire to have
more units of it in our school."
