HyFlex and Distance Learning
The HyFlex model enriches learning by allowing students to participate live in-person or remotely, and access on-demand content via any device. This flexibility improves learning outcomes by providing a consistent experience for both in-person and remote learners. Using collaboration and streaming technologies, schools offer real-time, interactive instruction where remote learners look and feel like they are in the room with instructors and classmates, able to watch lectures, ask questions, and contribute. For those who prefer to learn at their own pace, schools provide recorded lessons that can be streamed on-demand, thanks to high speed Internet. Schools rely on Extron’s SME and VN Matrix® streaming media encoders, SMD media players, as well as turn-key solutions like the Extron SMP Series recording and streaming processors and the StudioStation® one-touch recording solution to enhance learning beyond the classroom.
“Extron has been the standard for AV spaces at Central Piedmont since 2012. Through standardization, we keep equipment complements consistent. That streamlines installation, AV control programming, and troubleshooting. This translates to savings in time and money. For those reasons, Extron was our choice for the Parr Center.”

“We can send a source from any room to any other room in the complex; the NAV® system turns the entire MECD complex into one enormous, flexible learning space.”
Udine University
“This room has acted as the College’s proof of concept for moving signal and control routing to NAV® and we are already having additional spaces designed around the NAV architecture.”
