Many education institutions have adopted a hybrid model to enable students to rotate between in-person and remote learning. For in-person learning within the hybrid model, physical distancing has become a critical step to promote health and safety. The goal is for students and faculty to have sufficient space in between desks to avoid close contact. When possible, utilizing outdoor spaces can also help with social distancing while promoting an open-air environment.
It can be challenging for education institutions to relocate a traditional classroom outfitted with the latest technology, such as projectors, video conferencing cameras, speakers and microphones, to a new environment (e.g., gymnasiums, cafeterias and outdoor spaces) to promote social distancing. With the adoption of the hybrid model and social distancing guidelines, education institutions are quickly understanding the need for flexible, easy-to-use technology to provide students with valuable in-person and virtual learning experiences.
