ALTADENA, Calif. - October 7, 2020 - (Newswire.com)
To help colleges and universities accommodate the new reality, ClearTech has introduced EduFLEX: an easy-to-implement and affordable hybrid solution that enables higher ed institutions to quickly transform most any space into a fully functioning environment for distance/hybrid learning.
One of the first customers: Pepperdine University
Working on a very tight timeline, “… we needed a solution that would be turnkey and completely location agnostic, so no matter where you’re teaching, you could walk into the room and it was going to feel the same as every other space,” said Jared Mukai, Ph.D., manager of AV technologies and special projects at the private Southern California university.
“ClearTech’s EduFLEX solution with Panasonic’s PTZ cameras was the clear choice, given its reliability, flexibility and versatility, to transform distance learning environments into engaging teaching experiences.”
Pre-configured for immediate use.
EduFLEX is an affordable, self-contained solution that even non-experts can have up and running within five minutes.
“Choose from a portable system that incorporates all components in a rolling case, or a desktop/rack-mountable system with all components built in,” says ClearTech founder Christina De Bono. “Simply plug in an HDMI cable, set up your camera and you’re ready to teach.”
Designed for maximum flexibility, EDUFLEX works with schools’ existing technology infrastructures and communication platforms. Moreover, the solution offers all the benefits of unified communications (UC) without all the hardware that used to come along with it. Says De Bono: “EduFLEX frees colleges and universities from the rigidity of costly and complex hardware-based systems.”
One solution for students, support staff, faculty and administrators.
“In developing EduFLEX, we listened very carefully to our customers to get a clear sense of their needs,” says Joe Perez, CTO of ClearTech.
“Students want the best possible experience, consistent with how they consume technology elsewhere. Faculty need distance learning solutions they can count on and control and that won’t detract from their mission to educate. Similarly, administrative and support staff require workable, scalable solutions for classroom conversion and everyday technology maintenance.”
Flexibility amid uncertainty.
The higher ed learning environment is changing in ways that are both profound and unpredictable. EduFLEX provides welcome certainty that learning can continue whenever, wherever a college or university needs.
