Yarra Valley Grammar – a high-achieving independent school in Ringwood, Melbourne – recently enlisted DIB Australia for the installation of an interactive classroom display.
Touch screen monitors are a great way to bring interactive technologies into the classroom. The 80″ CommBox Classic touch screen ticks all the boxes. It features a super-responsive touch screen with up to 10 points of touch. This is important so that multiple people can interact with the screen at once, facilitating collaboration and group work between students and teachers. The CommBox touchscreen’s high definition LED display results in superior image quality. High brightness and excellent viewing angles mean that the screen can be easily viewed by students from all over the classroom without the need to close blinds or darken the room.
The CommBox Classic 80″ interactive panel
Touch screens are a great tool for teachers and students alike. They make lessons more engaging and helpful by giving the ability to manipulate and annotate electronic resources in real-time.They’re also quick to turn on and super intuitive to use.
Compared to an interactive projector, one clear advantage of the CommBox touch screen and other interactive panels is that they are super reliable. Where a projector might require a lamp replacement or other maintenance, touch panels will run for years without any need for maintenance. The 80″ CommBox touch screen even comes with a 3 year warranty to complete the package.
The DIB team installed a 6 button JED control panel just below the CommBox touch screen to handle picking sources, controlling volume, and turning the system on/off. Each button is clearly labelled and accompanied by an image. LED lights clarify which source has been selected and whether the system is turned on. This panel simplifies the system and makes it easy for teachers to operate the touch screen.
JED control panel and inputs for the CommBox touch screen
HDMI, VGA, Audio and USB inputs were installed alongside the JED wall control panel. These give teachers and students lots of options when connecting to the panel, ensuring that their devices are compatible whether they are old or new.
