High schools and universities always need to
communicate with students, faculty, staff, and parents. Administrators must
invest in a solution that will not only be embraced by its users but also its
audience and stand the test of time through employee turnover and student
graduation. Until recently, individual departments or student organizations
managed their own communications. Now thanks to converging markets, educators
have the chance to synthesize messages in at least three different venues and
avoid costly overlap in the process.
Television can reach nearly anyone at any time. A single station can double as a
public access outlet as well as event calendar. Another channel can deliver an
ongoing series of messages like homework assignments and be ready for instant
announcements in a weather-related emergency.
Fortunately, Scala has been pioneering these converging visual technologies for
over 18 years. Our InfoChannel® software suite can manage all of these displays
-- community television, campus-wide information systems, and interactive kiosks
-- together from a single location with one set of tools.
From creating content to scheduling to distribution and playback, InfoChannel®
can handle everything in a single network. Plus, the entire system can be
managed by any number of people, be it a single teacher or an entire classroom
of students.
