Jabra Case Study

Delivering superior remote learning experiences in Sarasota

As a result of the Covid pandemic, technology in classrooms has become essential to the success of students. From audio to video equipment, the pandemic has shown the critical need for flexible technology that enables teachers to meet the evolving needs of students, whether in the classroom or remotely.

Just as video conferencing has become the norm with remote work, adding a video element to remote learning, enables students to have a similar learning experience to the physical classroom environment, and allows teachers to engage directly with their students, regardless of location.

Bringing the classroom experience online

Jabra PanaCast is the world’s first Panoramic-4K plug-and-play video solution. Originally designed to bring meetings to life with high-definition video, PanaCast offers a full 180-degree view, automatically including everyone in the conversation – no matter how spread out they are.

With a view of the entire classroom, including the interactive whiteboard, students at home are able to see the teacher’s nonverbal cues and feel like they are an active part of the classroom. And for lessons that require more in-depth instruction, the Intelligent Zoom feature can automatically adjust the frame to focus only on the teacher, or whoever is talking at the time.

Jabra‘s Speak 510 wireless speakerphones offer superb audio quality, allowing students to hear everything that is going on in the classroom. Together, Jabra PanaCast and Speak 510 offer an unrivalled combination of crystal-clear audio and video to bring remote and in-person students closer together for an immersive, engaging remote learning experience.

“We don’t want to create an environment where teachers spend valuable instructional time troubleshooting technology. Jabra solutions are easy to navigate and are incredibly user friendly. The nice thing about technology is when it just works. This has been the case with Jabra solutions, they just work.”

Todd Alexander, Manager of School Support Services and Information Technology at Sarasota County Schools

All hands on deck to support rollout

With a short window between the arrival of the Jabra PanaCast cameras and Speak 510 speakerphones and the start of the school year, Sarasota Schools’ IT team was tasked with deploying these solutions in thousands of classrooms. However, the plug-and-play nature of Jabra solutions made the rollout quick, painless and successful across the district.

“It speaks volumes that we could set up 2,500 Jabra cameras and speakerphones seamlessly in such a short period of time.”

Jamal Guiler, System Administrator at Sarasota County Schools

Adding value for students and teachers

The rollout of Jabra PanaCast and Speak 510 in Sarasota Schools has generated overwhelmingly positive feedback. Teachers report that the solutions are very easy to use in a variety of different ways, and have added value to their classrooms by giving them the ability to connect with remote students in a more meaningful way.

The school district is learning more every day about what students at home need to be successful and as it plans for the future, Jabra solutions will be an integral part of Sarasota Schools’ ecosystem as it continues to benefit from technology and evolve with the changing needs of the classroom.
