MILPITAS, CA - (April 1, 2010)
AVerMedia® Information, Inc., the leading provider of digital multimedia and presentation technology, announced the visit of Mrs. Gayle Manchin, the First Lady of West Virginia to Warwood Elementary School in Wheeling West Virginia, an AVerMedia AVerAcademy Pilot Site on March 23, 2010. Among other items, Mrs. Manchin attended Ms. Carrie Downer’s Pre-K classroom to view how AVerMedia’s classroom solutions were being utilized in her classroom.

As a West Virginia Department of Education Board Member, Mrs. Manchin was able to view first hand how the AVerVision Document Camera and AVerPen Interactive Collaborative Learning Solution were being used, and how they fit within West Virginia’s academic goals for educators and students.

The combination of AVerVision Document Cameras and the AVerPen solution offers an environment where educators can offer clear live visuals of physical or digital lesson plan content while giving students the ability to interact with, and manipulate lesson material. Furthermore, as a pre-k classroom, Ms. Downer is able instruct from anywhere in the room, develop group collaborative skills, allow students to simultaneously interact with material as well as further develop hand-eye coordination and motor skills. Since the AVerMedia solutions combine a variety of existing interactive technologies into a single solution, schools are able to integrate a full 21st century solution at a fraction of the cost of piecing together various other solutions.

“As an educator today, that person needs to be a facilitator, to be able to work a room, to be able to interact with students one-on-one or as a team,” says Mrs. Manchin. “I think this promotes more teamwork, it promotes more independent accountability, and I think there is so much to offer when we can get that teacher out working with groups of students, moving around a classroom and not feeling they have to be in front of the class imparting all of the wisdom.”
