A portable videoconferencing cart is located in every school.  Contact your tech facilitator or media coordinator for scheduling. 

Home

The videoconferencing carts can be utilized for delivery of instruction by teachers for

• absent or homebound students,

• a review of content,

• presentation of new content.

• participation in video conferencing class by other institutions (such as NC School of Math and Science, community colleges, and universities) or special projects (museums, NASA etc.)

Administrators, teachers and students could conduct meetings across the district. They could later access the recording through the web or export the recording to CD, DVD or MP3 player.
