By partnering with AVI-SPL (formerly Sharp\u2019s Audio Visual), Kayas Cultural College was equipped with three 84-inch Microsoft Surface Hubs, to achieve dynamic distance learning across hundreds of kilometers in the northern reaches of Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 84-inch Microsoft Surface Hub is a group collaboration device that integrates videoconferencing, presentation, digital whiteboard capabilities, and runs Windows 10 UWP applications. Having one Surface Hub in each of the school\u2019s classrooms allows Kayas instructors to present information and interact directly on the screen with students at all three locations simultaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Little Red River Cree Nation has started utilizing the high-tech learning environment at Kayas with community members collaborating and holding meetings using the Surface Hubs. In fact, the local government is planning to purchase three new Surface Hubs for Chief and Council management.<\/p>\n\n\n
