Synopsis

Videoconferencing for K-12 Classrooms is an essential resource for every school and district leader, whether you already have a fledgling videoconferencing program or are still contemplating one. Interactive videoconferencing (IVC) networks have become increasingly available to educators. They offer the potential to link classrooms worldwide, connect far-flung learners to subject area experts, expose students to places and people that simply can’t be reached through traditional field trips, and bring in much-needed supplemental content. Videoconferencing is still very much a growth area in K-12 education—the costs for systems have come down, their capabilities have grown, and the economics of bringing outside expertise into the classroom have significantly tilted in favor of IVC.
