Screen Mirroring, Screencasting and Screen Sharing in Higher Education — from edtechmagazine.com by Derek Rice
Digital learning platforms let students and professors interact through shared videos and documents.
Excerpt (emphasis DSC):
Active learning, collaboration, personalization, flexibility and two-way communication are the main factors driving today’s modern classroom design.
Among the technologies being brought to bear in academic settings are those that enable screen mirroring, screencasting and screen sharing, often collectively referred to as wireless presentation solutions.
These technologies are often supported by a device and app that allow users, both students and professors, to easily share content on a larger screen in a classroom.
“The next best thing to a one-to-one conversation is to be able to share what the students create, as part of the homework or class activity, or communicate using media to provide video evidence of class activities and enhance and build out reading, writing, speaking, listening, language and other skills,” says Michael Volpe, marketing manager for IOGEAR.
