Effective Learning Through Observation
Monitors in the lobby of the School let parents see their child at any point during the day without being a distraction in the classroom, which could cause their child to act differently. Parents and school administrators are equally interested in educators’ teaching methods, if the pupils are actively participating in the activities and verifying that students are playing safely and eating well.
“Parents can be interested in seeing what the teacher is teaching, if their child is engaged in the lesson, or how well the student is eating at lunchtime. This gives reassurance and a sense of security,” says Duffield. “Classroom images on the screen help us track the teachers’ lessons or see if students are behaving well. What’s great is that the technology allows us to observe without disturbing the lesson flow, to see behavior during normal interactions.”
The video solution has surpassed Duffield’s expectations: “We are proud to offer this to the families of our pupils and are thrilled with its positive effect on our program.”
