Barco

weConnect is a collaborative learning solution for higher education offers an active, lean-forward experience for everyone involved in an educational setting. It gives both teachers and students all the connectivity, interactivity and information exchange tools they need to enable educational institutions to evolve from a teacher-centric to a student-centric experience and make education more engaging.

Lectures are transitioning from a lean-back, uni-directional information dump to an active, interactive exchange among all participants. New technology has opened up a vast range of new engagement and collaboration possibilities. And while students and teachers want to bring any personal device (BYOD) into the room and tap into the campus WiFi network to share information and interact more actively, students can also be located anywhere (e.g. in a remote classroom or at home), so the same features need to deliver an on-campus experience to everybody involved. Designed for students who have grown up with mobile technology, weConnect − Barco’s collaborative learning solution for higher education − provides teachers with a new palette of tools for making their preferred teaching methods state-of-the-art.
