Woodstock School, India (I)
Easily switching between live images and a PC makes geography class run smoother
Woodstock School in the Indian Himalayas
is one of the most highly esteemed Christian international schools in South Asia.
Established in 1854, Woodstock aims to develop responsible global citizens and leaders
by providing a world-class international education, rooted in Christian heritage
and values, for a diverse group of students, especially those from families in Christian
or public services. It provides K-12 instruction, with a residence program starting
later in the elementary school. Classes follow up through the twelfth grade. Its
alumni are active in almost every part of the globe and continue to support the
development of this exciting and effective center of learning.
”SPC300 helps a teacher already busy with lesson planning, classroom management,
and presentation timing.”
- Mr. Jeffrey Thomas, Geography Teacher, Woodstock School
Mr. Thomas said, “The design of the
SPC300 makes it very easy to switch between the
visualizer (document camera)
and a webpage display. I displayed the webpage and Google Earth while preparing
a document, then switched to the document display at just the right moment. Previously,
I would have had to convert the document into a .jpg file and then find it in my
Windows® folder. With the
visualizer (document camera)
available, I can now display images from the textbook and map-book on the fly, depending
on the direction of the class discussion. It also gives me an alternative image
to display while waiting for Google Earth or other Internet pages to refresh (our
Internet connection is slow), and yet I can keep an eye on both the camera and computer
display sources.”
