Go Wireless with Toucan!
There is no escaping the fact that wireless devices like iPods, iPads and laptops are
changing the way that we teach and learn. The use of wireless devices in the home and
the work place place increasing pressure on schools to provide equivalent high quality wifi
access. Educationally this can have many benefits. For example:
ICT can be embedded into classroom activities more easily.
Less time and disruption is incurred than when moving to and from the ICT suite.
Teachers are more effective in their own spaces as opposed to the ICT suite.
iPods and iPads can be used alongside traditional pen and paper with ease.
The focus of lessons is not interrupted by technology.
Devices can also be used outside the school, in the playground and on the sports field.
Rooms and spaces become more flexible and this can take the pressure off ICT rooms
and ease timetabling issues.
Enabling wifi access in the home or a small to medium size company is relatively easy and
reliable. However, providing this for a school with hundreds of potential users across
multiple classrooms, floors and often buildings, requires planning and expertise.
Toucan have been at the forefront of deploying wireless technology in schools. This area
of experience has evolved to accommodate the wide range of wireless devices that are
now being used in schools.
If you are looking at installing a new wifi system or developing your existing wifi capabilities
please contact us and we will be happy to explore the options and guide you through the
best solution for your needs and budget. We can even provide a free wireless survey of
the school.
