Greg Martinez
- Sunnyvale Middle School
"I have been teaching for 8 years and for the first 7 years I used the traditional overhead for most of my instruction. I began using the Avervision 355AF at the tail end of last year and this year also. It has changed the way I give out notes to the class, but more importantly I can do so many more things with the 355AF than the overhead projector. The video option on the 355AF allows me to record my own notes and play them back at my convenience. No need to worry about writing on different overhead sheets for different classes. I can also take snap shots of notes and use the split screen option, instead of showing one sheet at a time. I can easily switch between the document camera and the computer at any time with the push of a button. I have been using the document camera now for a few months, and I can't imagine not ever using it as part of my daily instruction."

Traci Sutherland
- Sherwood School District
"Our school district has an AVer document camera in every classroom, which has this changed the way our teachers work in their classrooms, by giving them a way to share student work with the class and show things in a way that was never possible with an old overhead projector. The few times we have needed technical support, we were so pleased that AVer's support and customer service is speedy and accommodating because now that our teachers have their document cameras, they absolutely cannot live without them!"

Marilyn Querciagrossa
- Technology Coordinator
"We have been very happy with our choice of AVer document cameras in Minooka CCSD 201. The initial consideration in choosing AVer products for our district was the low price, but we're very impressed with the quality of the hardware, software, and customer service. AVer stands solidly behind its products. We have purchased over 100 document cameras and have had only one that proved to be defective. When we notified the company, they immediately sent us a replacement. The company has also provided training sessions for our teachers - something which definitely puts them ahead of their competition in terms of customer service."

Ashley Amaro
- Forum Contest Winner, Sunol, CA
"Thank you so much for the amazing document camera. It has truly changed the way I teach and my students are more engaged and excited about learning than ever before. Your generosity and support for teachers is truly inspiring. Companies like yours help to make teaching easier, more hands on, and overall the greatest profession there is! Thank you for all that you do to support education!"

Debbie da Silva
- Weller Elementary School
"I have used other document cameras in the past; but, wasn't as happy with them as I have been with the AVer Document camera.  Whenever I use my document camera (which is everyday), the image is always bright and clearly focused.  I also have a set of Averpens and enjoy using them, as well.  I can use it from almost anywhere in my classroom, so my back doesn't always have to be turned.  I can't see the need for an interactive white board in my classroom.  On top of everything, customer support is wonderful.  Questions are answered in a timely manner and everyone is very friendly."

Technology Grant Program Manager
"The AVer 355AF has helped make our teachers' instruction more powerful and has enhanced student productivity. I've seen this document camera used for simple on-the-fly image presentations (an art teacher demonstrating brush strokes) and for advanced student projects (recordings of speeches and group presentations). It is a powerful tool with a lot of functionality, but what is also important is the ease of use. Additionally, AVer has great customer support and engaging professional development."

RANDAL BAILEY
"We are using several hundred AVer Document cameras in our classroom. The teachers like the how easy they are to use and they say the software is fantastic."

Susan Pendergast
- Seaman USD 345
"Our district began using AVer document cameras three years ago. One of our instructional specialists saw the document camera demonstrated at a math conference and felt the AVerVision document camera provided better text quality and had several features that made the document camera easy to use. Through those years we have purchased multiple cameras, have had demonstrations of the features of new models and have worked closely with technical support when problems arise. Whether we are having software issues or equipment issues, technical support is always there to assist. Customer satisfaction is 100% and the problems are resolved in a timely fashion, usually shipping the replacement before sending back the non-working document camera. Our teachers truly enjoy instructing with the AVerVision document camera."

Tony Casella
- Achieve NBC Inc. NFP
"I want to thank you so much for all the help and support with my AVer product. Your support meant a lot to us since our organization, Achieve NBC, is an academic and professional resource to public school teachers. Your products allow us to do our work more efficiently and our audiences love the impact of being able to display information instantaneously; it really facilitates collaboration for our teachers. Thanks also for referring me to Dan Merryman. I must say the combination of support I received from AVer was unprecedented in my experience from a technical standpoint. Additionally, Dan Merryman was very inspiring when talking about what Achieve NBC could do with AVer beyond what we presently do. His ideas about connecting to a wider audience have inspired me to think of AVer, not only as a technical resource, but as an inspirational guru! I hope that you and Dan continue providing the outstanding service for other customers as you have for Achieve NBC. I look forward to doing more business with you in the future."

"The AVerPens, A+ Interactive software, and document camera were easy to use. I literally put them in the hands of my students and within days they had figured out how to use them!"

Michael George
- St. Vrain Valley School District
"AVer customer service has been great to us. Their support website answers a lot of questions and the live chat handles the rest. In the event a unit has had a hardware problem, they provide shipping to and from the repair depot. The representatives are knowledgeable, polite, and prompt. The products themselves have been very reliable with full feature sets."

Mike Dineen
- CCS Presentation Systems
"In all my relationships with AVer, I can say it has been positive and with no glitches or bumps, with respect to taking care of my needs."

Henry C. Thiele Ed.D.
- Chief Technology Officer
"I have been part of two deployments of over 1200 document cameras in two separate districts over the past 5 years. The AVer cameras have been the most effective tool at helping teachers migrate to a more visually rich and technologically interactive 21st Century learning environment. They were reasonably priced, simple to deploy, and have been maintenance free. Teachers can learn to use the tool in less than an hour and can keep learning tips and trick on creative teaching strategies for years. Once it is accepted by your teachers they won't want to teach without one!"

Michele Goshko
- Technology Coordinator
"I think you have a great product, company and customer service.  I will speak favorable on you guys whenever I can."

Brittney Newman
- Aspen Elementary
"I have been very impressed with the service provided. From the beginning, I was assigned one person to deal directly with, John Chang, who provided me with his direct work line and email. All conversations on my end and troubleshooting went through him so I never had to "retell my story" to another service tech. John continued to work with me until the process was completed and the problem solved. John quickly learned my school schedule (as a teacher I cannot answer the phone or troubleshoot issues during the school day) and contacted me when I was available. I have never been more impressed with a company's or a single person's customer service and technical support. Thank you!"

Betty Ong
- Royal Oak Middle School
"As a middle school, we order a lot of document cameras for teachers to use in classrooms. Without an in-house technology support function, it is important that we can go to vendors for help with technical issues. I have been most impressed with the quality, follow through, and promptness with which my questions have been answered. We have had several issues that were very easy to solve, due to the responsiveness from the vendor. I am very pleased with the prompt customer service and response times. In considering all factors when purchasing equipment, customer support is paramount to our needs."

Lori Cook
- West Central Valley CSD, Menlo, Iowa
"I was one of the lucky teachers in our building to use the document camera right away. I would have to say that it is one of the best teaching tools I have used in my 30 years of teaching lower elementary school. I used the document camera for a day and a half before I regretfully had to pass it on to the next grade level. During the time it was in my room, I was able to demonstrate the directions to a rather complicated (for first grade anyway) worksheet. All of the students were able to see what I was doing as the paper was being projected onto the wall, versus them trying to see what I was doing on a small piece of paper held up in front of them. We also used the document camera to discuss Daily Oral Language (DOL). During DOL I had the students who had done their sentences correctly come up front and use the document camera to show the correct responses. Since the students knew the best examples were going to be displayed, they tried extra hard as they did their work, so it was a great motivator! All of my first graders were disappointed that we had to pass the camera on to another class and asked if I could please buy one for our class....(a little out of my pocket change budget however)! Thanks for the opportunity to try it out!!!! I can see it would be an invaluable tool in the classroom!"

"Our Company has been distributing AVer products for some time now and we will continue to partner with this manufacturer for years to come. A few of the reasons our Company has been so successful with this particular manufacturer is because first and foremost customer service, support and loyalty to their dealers as well as the end user. Everyone of our customers has been pleased after purchasing AVer products and this is what makes them the number one selling document cameras worldwide".

Scott Meech

"AVer has allowed me to easily integrate a team approach along withmeeting my curriculum standards and has changed my entire classroom learning environment. I have rethought the way I question my students and have been able to stretch their thinking skills. Thank you so much for introducing me to this great technology. Aver Media has helped to make my classroom a better learning environment. I appreciate all your support and the support of the Aver Media Team."

Darrell Thommen

"Thanks AVer for keeping South Kitsap School District's Document Cameras up and running! Everyday our teachers depend upon their presentation equipment to run smoothly. AVer is always quick to respond. Great product and superb customer service!"

Anita Forsberg
- Technology Support
"Just a quick note to compliment AVer on their product and service.  Our school district has purchased hundreds of AverVision Document Cameras.  When I am in need of your technical support I always contact John Chang.  He will first try to troubleshoot with me and if it is determined that the unit needs to be sent in for repair he is quick to handle the RMA request.  It is always a pleasure to deal with John.  I also appreciate the usual quick turnaround when sending the unit in for the repair."

Raul Castillo

"AVer has amazing products that our customers love and great over the top customer care, I highly advise customers to go with AVer."

Jen Bernal
- Elementary Student Services Specialist, Illinois
"I was impressed with the presentation/training given at our school.  Teachers were excited to go and use the products purchased for them thanks to our PTA.  Several staff members have used document cameras and projectors in the past, but were not aware of many of the features."

Judith Epcke
- Northbrook District 2
"The AVer document cameras have had an impact in our classrooms. They have allowed teachers to teach in new ways to improve student learning; and we've just begun to take advantage of all they can do!"

Sean Elkinton
- Hathaway Elementary School
"AVer was very quick to answer all my questions and their help was greatly appreciated."

Barbara Libby
- Art Teacher at Bacich Elementary
"I have been the proud user of a Aver Media Document Camera for over a year now. The document camera has become an invaluable tool in my elementary art classroom. For step-by-step drawing, or painting instructions, the camera allows me to project each step of my directions on a screen, visible for every student in the class. Students can clearly see how I hold my brush or pencil and see the movements of my hand and wrist. Before I had a document camera in my classroom I would ask my students to form a large circle around a table as I demonstrated the techniques. Naturally, some of my students' view of the demonstration was obstructed or they had to look at it upside down.

With my 3rd grade students I work on a Native American project where braiding string and paper is one of our lesson objectives. Teaching 20 students at the same time how to braid materials into a decorative band, is quite a challenge, but not with the use of a document camera. Students are ready with their braiding materials and eager to follow along the movements of my hands they see with the projection of the document camera. In just a few minutes of instructions using the document camera, and of course practice, all my students are on track and engaged to complete the braiding project.

Furthermore, I use the document camera in my art classroom to teach color mixing lessons since the camera does a beautiful job projecting color. I have used the camera to show special techniques in working with clay, as well has how to demonstrate the proper use of wire working tools. The document camera is also a fantastic tool for sharing student work. Students can project their work on to the screen and share their creation with the entire class. Nothing makes my students feel so proud when they see their work projected on a large screen for everyone to admire. I take still pictures of my students' work to use as samples, or to upload to our school web site."

Dale Bunger
- Wahluke School District
"AVer is easy to contact, has excellent service and fast returns."

Melissa Garner
- Technology Development Coordinator
"The information AVer provided us in our recent training is truly invaluable.  The frequency of the gasps of surprise and excitement from the teachers was remarkable. 
I can honestly say that the two hours of training on the document camera will go down
as one of their favorites and be used the very first day of class.  It makes a world of difference knowing this kind of support is available."

Jane Miller
- Instructional Technology Facilitator
"Choosing theAVerVison300AF has been a must for the Spokane Public School District. Presently, it is the only document camera model recommended for purchase. We are absolutely impressed with the timely changes made on the current model based upon some of our own feedback. From the outstanding software upgrade to include ink annotations, to the camera's ability to auto focus have been greatly appreciated. We no longer have to check both the projector and the document camera if the picture is out of focus. With the current upgrades made to the latest document camera, it will be exciting
to see how AVer tops the AVerVision300AF model."

Leslie Sison
- Document Camera Experts
" AVer is an excellent company to do business with. We have had some terrific Account Representatives who are always quick with answers to any questions that we may have and very attentive to addressing problems that can sometimes arise . Their service to us as a vendor has been great and they are an excellent group of people to work with.
Service, while rarely needed, is also quick to answer any technical issues that have come up and even go as far as to create videos to explain how to correct issues so we have a visual to work with as well.
It is a pleasure to work with AVer. "

"As the technology resource coach, I am able to visit many classrooms each day to see"

Melody Brewer
- 5th Grade Teacher
"I use my AVerVision300AF daily in all content areas, modeling use of manipulatives, to sharing math solutions, displaying text for reading or writing activities, displaying the steps in a science experiment. I can also capture videos or photos during lessons which allow my students to refer back to in later lessons, compare and contrast, and allow me to easily reflect on my teaching. My students are excited to share their work, which therefore increases student engagement and makes lessons more lively and exciting. Once you begin using it, you will wonder how you ever taught without it!"

Stephanie Contreras
- 6th Grade Math Teacher
"My AVerVision Document Camera is a staple in my daily education of my students. It helps me to reach many students in several and interesting ways using hand-on approaches to learning. The camera is engaging and visually stimulating. It has definitely impacted the day to day of learning of my students by saving transition time in class, saving planning time for teachers, saving valuable teaching time when explaining steps and solutions in math. I can’t say enough about how much I enjoy my document camera and how it has become an absolute necessity in my teaching methods."

Judi Schlickman
- 4th Grade Teacher
"I love my AVerVision300AF document camera. I use it daily. When I'm assigning work, I can easily put a worksheet or paper under the camera and work through a few samples with the students. Then they can see exactly what is expected of them."

Elizabeth M. Engel
- Teacher
"The AVerVision is changing the way I teach and my students learn. From folding fraction strips together, viewing squirmy worms, to examining up close on how a light bulb works, or just going over written work; my students have the advantage of a visual learning environment I could not have envisioned a year ago."

Jan Toepke
- Teacher
"Second Grade students are sharing squiggle pictures and stories with their class. The students took a squiggle line and turned it into a picture. They then wrote a description of their picture. The document camera enabled the entire class to easily view everyone's creative pictures while listening to their stories."
