Higher didactic performance.
Audiovisual Broadcasting
High quality audio and video can be sent in real time using only the classroom’s computer network. Up to 10 channels can be configured to broadcast simultaneously. The teacher can send different audio-visual resources to different groups of students from different analogue or digital sources.
Communication
Optimas School allows oral communication between the students and the teacher, something which is fundamental in order to work on oral expression and comprehension. Up to 8 simultaneous conversation work groups can be created, as well as consecutive or random pairs. The students can interact using their microphones, and the teacher can listen to them or speaks to them.
Management and Personalization
This includes different tools which allow the teacher to manage and administer the classroom in a simple and personalized manner. The teacher can request the students’ names and see them on his/ her monitor, as well as decide how he/ she wants to see a general view of the classroom. The teacher can create personalized profiles in order to store and retrieve different classroom configurations.
Control
This allows greater levels of discipline to be maintained in the classroom, since the teacher has total control over what happens in class. The teacher can see the students’ screens, as well as listen to them and record them. The system has a remote control feature which allows the teacher to switch the students’ computers on or off, lock them, execute programmes automatically or deny access to applications.
