New classroom self-review video system launched
EB News: 19/10/2017 - 10:34
ONVU Technologies has launched its new 360o classroom self-review tool, LessonVU, which aims to help teachers maximise learning.
It facilitates the secure recording, sharing, review, and analysis of the entire teaching and learning environment from a single plug and play camera, microphone and classroom gateway box.
LessonVU is low profile and is on 24/7 meaning the technology does not interrupt the lesson. Its video recordings of daily classroom activities enable effective, self-directed teacher development and are recorded from a single recessed, ceiling mounted camera that can view the entire classroom.
The recordings are controlled by the teacher to aid reflection, improve their teaching and learning, and support sustainable and scalable continuous professional development (CPD).
At its event launch in London, teachers from Hereford Academy heralded the technology, claiming that it has enhanced learning and allowed teachers to improve their lessons.
Andy Goff, VP of business development said: “ONVU Learning combines years of experience in teaching and learning in schools, with award-winning technology.
“Educators working with ONVU Learning will benefit from the most effective and innovative ways to reflect on their teaching. Our technology and advice come together to ensure investment in teacher development is targeted, valued and successful.”
Education Support, the charity dedicated to the mental health and wellbeing of teachers and education staff, has released its ninth Teacher Wellbeing Index.
Nearly two thirds of Initial Teacher Training providers believe that teachers are not currently prepared to meet the government’s ambition to raise the complexity threshold for SEND pupils entering mainstream schools.
England’s councils are warning of a "ticking time bomb" in the special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) system, with new data showing deficits that could bankrupt local authorities within three years.
The regulations have been set following a second consultation and detailed collaborative working with organisations and people across deaf and hearing communities.
