Digital Classroom Podium
The Original
The Digital Classroom Podium, or “DCP,” is the first system developed by DCS. It is now our standard classroom system for large classrooms. Lecture Halls and Auditoriums are equipped with the Digital Classroom Podium A1, a wider version of the podium that includes a preview monitor, voice amplification, and the ability to present on multiple in-room displays.
Rutgers Built for Rutgers Classes
The Digital Classroom Podium, like other Digital Classroom Systems, are designed and constructed in-house by our Technical Services & Operations team. The Rutgers Room Control program is also designed and improved by an in-house programmer. As a result, our staff is continuously able to modify the podium based on the experience of the faculty using them. Since first introducing the DCPs we have worked closely with faculty through direct interaction, surveys, and feedback sessions to refine new designs to best meet the needs of Rutgers instructors. To watch a podium being built from workroom to classroom, click on the video to the left. For more information, view the sections below.
