Teaching becomes interactive and effective with AVerVision530
The Bangkok University was originally
known as the Thai Polytechnic Institute until 1965 when it became the first private
college in Thailand. In recent years, the most well-known department at
Bangkok University is the Faculty of Communication Arts. Moreover, Bangkok University
got the "MIS ASIA'S TOP 100 I.T. USERS" award in both 2004 and 2005.
"I have not found any problems using AVerVision530. It works properly... it
is a durable and powerful tool for education. I think other teachers will like it,
too."

AVerVision530
makes teaching easier and more comfortable with its easy-to-use operation and high-definition
image. Educators can put documents, art work, models and magazines under the
camera and display them through a projector. It works so fast to show the content
of documents.
"Now that we have
AVerVision530 in class, I don't need to take much time to prepare the documents
for classes because I can place the books or other documents under the camera and
then start teaching." said Professor Wuttisak Pitsuwan, Faculty Lecturer of
Business Administration in the Marketing Department. With this new teaching
tool, educators now spend less time preparing materials and focus more on thinking
how to make teaching richer and more interactive.
Professor Parama Satavatin, Faculty Lecturer of Communication Arts, said, "I
am satisfied with the quality of
AVerVision530; its resolution is higher than the old one and with more space
to save images. I use the freeze function to pause the image of a document,
so I have time to prepare new documents while students take notes."
Professors can also capture images to the built-in memory and then upload them to
a sharing folder so that students can download them for review. Also,
AVerVision530 increases interaction in class. Students will do some of their
assignments using the AVerVision530
and present what they want to show, like diagrams or charts, and share ideas with
others. Professors can give advice, as well. With the
AVerVision530 visualizer (document
camera) in class, teaching and learning becomes more effective and interactive.
"For presentation in class, my students can use the AVerVision530 easily to
present their idea. And I can know how much they understand the lesson." -
