In our Step Into Security webinar, we are discussing the recent requirement for some schools to add cameras & microphones to their special education classrooms.
In Texas and other states, there is a developing trend for lawmakers to require schools to add video and audio recording equipment to classrooms. This requirement is a result of alleged mistreatment of special education students. The requirement can include adding cameras and microphones to the special needs classrooms under certain circumstances.
LENSEC physical security expert Keith Harris will be discussing this topic and presenting solutions for meeting the requirements.

Video Conferencing and Streaming for Distance LearningVideoguy
The document discusses applications of video conferencing and streaming for distance learning. It describes how these technologies can be used for traditional teaching, field trips, school announcements, and classroom capture and playback. Benefits include increasing access to expert teachers, reducing travel costs, and allowing students to access material on-demand for review. Costs for equipment can range from $5,000 to $50,000 depending on needs. Popular manufacturers include Cisco, Polycom, and Radvision.
This toolkit provides resources and strategies to promote effective and inclusive online teaching practices. It includes tools to design inclusive course frameworks, incorporate active learning strategies, and support diverse student needs. Sample policies, checklists, and activities are presented to foster community building and engagement in the online classroom.
The document discusses expert systems, which are designed to solve real problems in a particular domain that normally require human expertise. Developing an expert system involves extracting knowledge from domain experts. The key components of an expert system are the knowledge base, inference engine, explanation facility, knowledge acquisition facility, and user interface. Expert systems use knowledge rather than data to solve problems and can explain their reasoning. They have limitations such as being difficult to maintain and only applicable to narrow problems.
The document summarizes research on the use of lecture capture technologies in higher education. It discusses the changing landscape of higher education, including more non-traditional students and competition between institutions. It then describes technologies like podcasting and coursecasting that can be used to record and distribute lectures. Several implementation examples at universities are provided, and studies found benefits like improved student learning and satisfaction. Accessibility support and captioning are also discussed.
1. The document discusses distance legal education (DLE), including various synchronous and asynchronous methods, challenges of implementation, and ways to lower barriers.
2. It provides examples of how DLE is being used, such as for guest lectures, semester-long courses, and student interviews via videoconferencing.
3. The Center for Computer-Assisted Legal Instruction (CALI) is working to promote DLE through resources on their website, presentations, and a new service called ClassCaster that allows faculty to record and share audio lessons.
The document discusses distance legal education (DLE) and ways to lower barriers to its implementation. It defines different forms of DLE, from videoconferencing and web-based courses to using technologies like ClassCaster. Reasons DLE is interesting include allowing learning anywhere and serving more students. However, barriers include institutional resistance and technical challenges. The Center for Computer-Assisted Legal Instruction is working to share information and resources to promote DLE through research, training, and innovative tools.
This document discusses lecture capture technology, which involves recording an instructor's audio, video, and any projections during a lecture for students to access online. It provides benefits of lecture capture such as improved student performance and understanding, as well as how students typically use recordings to review material or if they miss class. The document also outlines how lecture capture works at Williams College currently and questions around expanding the technology in the future.
Accessibility Strategies for Educational Online Video3Play Media
For many campuses, online video has become an essential part of teaching and learning. While online video has opened up the classroom to many more students, educational institutions have had to face legal, functional, and ethical pressures to provide accessible video accommodations to their students and staff. Closed captions are also being demanded by ESL students who benefit from the ability to review course content at their own pace. This session spotlights Portland Community College and University of Wisconsin. While both institutions have been progressive about accessibility, they have taken different approaches. This webinar will explore solutions that can be translated into actionable plans for your campus. Topics covered include:
Strategies and resources
Costs and benefits derived
Implementation best practices
Specific examples that will help you gain a deeper understanding of how to create an accessible campus
University of Pretoria clicker introduction and demonstrationDavid Wilson
This document introduces clicker technology for interactive learning. It discusses Participate Technologies, the sole South African representatives of Turning Technologies, the global leader in response technology. The presentation covers how clickers work, research supporting their benefits like engagement and feedback, and response solutions for students and lecturers. It demonstrates clicker polling and discusses implementation considerations.
VSU began using video conferencing technology in 2002 to provide remote interpreting and tutoring services. They initially tested it on campus to interpret classes for a deaf student, then expanded to include interpreting for classes at other schools and colleges. They also began using it to remotely tutor and supervise student teachers and interpreters. Currently they are exploring its use for distance learning classes, both interactive and non-interactive. Several considerations are important for effective use of video conferencing technology including available resources, support, and type of technology environment.

Creating University - High School Connectionspumabeth
The document summarizes a program called SALT High School Connection that was created to help at-risk high school students prepare for higher education. The program is a partnership between the University of Arizona's SALT Center and Catalina High School. It provides students with learning disabilities study skills training, assistive technology training, mentoring, and information about pursuing post-secondary education. An evaluation found the program helped improve students' grades and test scores, increased college aspirations, and led to all inaugural participants graduating high school and pursuing further education.
What technology challenges are you facing today? A recent forum of CTO's found that while funding is an on-going issue there are other challenges that can be equally as daunting.
To compound the technology issues, a recent survey found that only 51% of school districts had their own IT Director. This means 49% of Districts are staffed by a part-timer (i.e. Principal or Teacher) or the position is not staffed. Given the growing importance of integrating IT and Digital Learning this could be a major obstacle for many districts.
We've highlighted some of the challenges and provided resources where available to help you chart a course.

The document discusses test accommodations and accessibility for students with disabilities. It outlines several federal laws that require participation of students with disabilities in assessments and notes that accommodations must not invalidate test scores. Examples of accommodations include extra time, separate testing spaces, and having tests read aloud. The document provides guidance to testing proctors on their roles and responsibilities in providing accommodations appropriately while maintaining test security and integrity.
This document provides an overview of response to intervention (RTI), including its definition, origins, core principles, and essential components for implementation. RTI is defined as providing high-quality instruction matched to student needs and using student performance data to make educational decisions. It originated from several problem-solving models and aims to provide early intervention. The core principles are intervening early, using a multi-tier model and problem-solving methodology, and making data-driven decisions. Essential components for implementation include using a multi-tier model, problem-solving methods, integrated assessment systems, and data-driven decision making.
This document discusses Texas Tech University's strategy of distributed autonomy for IT services. Under this model, the central IT division provides common campus-wide services and tools, while individual colleges and departments focus on specialized needs. One example provided is the university's use of the Mediasite lecture capture and video platform. The central IT division maintains the Mediasite server and storage, provides training and support, and grants access. Departments are responsible for equipment, scheduling, and content access. Several scenarios involving student, faculty, and department use of Mediasite are reviewed. Lessons learned focus on change management, collaboration, and content archiving.

Step Into Security Webinar – Best Practices for Bomb Threat Response at SchoolsKeith Harris
1) Schools should have a bomb threat response plan in place and work closely with first responders. All threats should be taken seriously.
2) Upon receiving a threat, the school should capture all available information, call 9-1-1, and begin a threat assessment in consultation with first responders.
3) Evacuation of the entire building is not always the first priority; a search may be conducted first if the threat is deemed not credible and no device is found. The decision to evacuate involves considering factors like the threat level and advice from responders.
