How the elements of content, collaboration, and control impact students

When considering how the implementation of new teaching methods will impact the ways AV technology is used in classrooms or other learning environments, it’s helpful to focus on why the technology needs to be used to communicate the material.

Knowing the why helps:

• bring the value of using technology into focus
• facilitate how teaching committees plan to implement technology into their course curriculum

There are three aspects (or elements) that illustrate how AV technology ensures the best learning outcomes in today’s educational institutions: Content, Collaboration, and Control.

Content: Clear, Consistent Communication

The first element is clearly communicating course content to students, and it’s one of the most fundamental requirements of learning today. Since today’s students have grown accustomed to seeing teaching material displayed on a projector or multiple displays around the room, distributing content within a space using AV technology becomes paramount.

That’s the why behind Crestron’s focus on content. Some of the methods for content distribution include using DM® Essentials based on HDBaseT® connectivity over twisted pair wiring with a few improvements. Another method is to use AV-over-IP distribution to send the same audio, video, USB, and control signals on the network, like the DM NVX® technology series.

A third way is to send video and audio content wirelessly using Crestron’s AirMedia® wireless presentation and conferencing systems. With any of these platforms, instructors can:

• connect their sources easily
• communicate their materials to their students anywhere in the classroom
• be confident that the learning environment reflects how students learn today

Buy the NVX and AirMedia® from shop.avispl.com today.

Collaboration: Connecting Everyone, Everywhere

A second aspect of the most modern teaching pedagogies is collaboration. Hybrid and hyflex learning spaces with a mix of in-person and remote students demand AV technology, which follows the natural flow of conversation.

Effective learning cannot be accomplished unless everyone is heard and seen clearly, allowing for real collaboration between students in or out of the classroom. There are natural movements that people make when collaborating.

For example, the instructor or in-person students don’t always face the same direction. They might switch between addressing or responding to different people in the classroom or remote participants on a monitor.

Crestron’s Automate VX multi-camera speaker tracking solution utilizes artificial intelligence for multi-camera intelligent switching, including Visual AI or Visual AI Direction, to unlock true collaboration for everyone involved. Without human intervention, this technology allows the system to switch to another camera when the person speaking looks in another direction (rather than only showing the side of the speaker’s face).

One of the quickest ways to make remote learners feel disconnected is by providing an experience where the instructor and the in-person students never seem to look at them.

The software in the Automate VX works with Crestron’s 1 Beyond cameras by detecting faces and angles of facial features — while not recognizing or identifying specific people. Crestron devices do not identify people locally or otherwise. It is the only solution of its kind — with multiple optical zoom cameras and third-party microphones — offering automatic switching based on face direction.

Control: Simplifying the Learning Experience

The third element of why using AV technology ensures the best learning outcomes revolves around two teaching or learning styles: Active Learning and Experiential Learning. In these two methodologies, control ties the technology together with the learning.

Active Learning Spaces

In Active Learning spaces, the instructor might want to send their content to all group tables while he explains the parameters of a group assignment. Then, the small groups would send a local source from one student in the group to a display at or near the group worktable or station.

The most successful outcomes of Active Learning happen when one or several students “teach” other small group members the material — thereby helping to contextualize and reinforce recall of the material in their own minds. But control from the lectern or at the group worktables is essential for simplifying and automating the functions of the system.

Experiential Learning

In Experiential Learning, applications such as medical simulation labs require control of microphones and speakers, routing video signals from the control room into the lab space, control of PTZ cameras to observe what is going on, control of recording devices, etc. This all creates a more user-friendly system for non-technical educators.

Specialized Environments

• In nursing or EMT training labs, a trainer will want to tell students how to safely move a patient or listen to the questions a student asks in an exam room.

• In an esports lab, a coach needs to route a player’s video to displays around the space to help other players understand a team’s strategy or what issues to avoid during the next competition.

Any of these examples live or die by how the AV technology can be controlled — which is where Crestron 4-Series® control processors excel.

Campus-Wide AV Management

One last example of the importance of control in modern learning is using technology operations software to remotely control, maintain, and support all the content, collaboration, and control technology used in multiple buildings by the whole institution or across the campus.

The XiO Cloud® platform puts the power into the hands of the support teams to confirm that all systems are ready to enhance teaching rather than become obstacles to learning. XiO Cloud platform software enables support teams to deploy, manage, monitor, and evolve the technology used in teaching quickly and efficiently.

With this tool, the user can:

• view the online or offline status of the technology

• check room health, review the status and settings of the technology before the class begins

• get alerts if any issues arise

Further, technology firmware and software updates can be scheduled, usage of spaces can be tracked, and systems can be set to maintenance mode when being serviced. Additionally, historical data, metrics, and dashboards can provide institution-wide insights on how the technology is being integrated into teaching by the faculty members.

AV technology significantly impacts the success of new teaching methods. It plays a key role in both implementing new pedagogical advancements and why there is value in using the technology in all types of learning environments.

Technology ensures faculty can thoughtfully weave together their course materials with the technology required to communicate with their students. When teaching committees are discussing the most impactful ways for students to absorb information, they will want to understand why it is so valuable to focus on content, collaboration, and control.

February 2025  — Sustainability isn’t only about protecting the environment—it’s about creating new value. At ISE in February 2025, the AVIXA Sustainability Advisory Group explored how integrating sustainability into business strategy can triple the benefits: for people, for the planet, and for profit. The panel discussion, moderated by Kelly Bousman of AVI-SPL, brought together leaders from across the AV industry to share how sustainability is transforming how companies grow and innovate.

AVI-SPL: Redefining Sustainability as a Growth Mindset

AVI-SPL emphasized that sustainability is fundamentally a growth model. It’s about building businesses that thrive—companies that are not just resilient but positioned for accelerated success. Research from Deloitte, Morgan Stanley, and McKinsey consistently shows that sustainable companies outperform their peers in revenue growth, investor attraction, employee engagement, and market positioning.

The conversation centered on the Triple Bottom Line – a framework introduced by sustainability expert John Elkington in 1994 to encourage businesses to measure success not just in financial terms, but also by their impact on people and the planet. The discussion reinforced that the real power of sustainability is in its multiplier effect. When companies embed sustainability into their operations, they unlock efficiencies, strengthen customer relationships, deepen employee engagement, and drive long-term profitability.

Sustainability in Action: Industry Leaders Share Their Strategies

Sustainability isn’t a one-size-fits-all journey. Throughout the discussion, four AVIXA member companies—TAD, Barco, Shure, and Legrand—shared how they’re applying sustainability principles in ways that make business sense while advancing environmental and social impact.

TAD: Design Thinking for Sustainable Growth

Jon Reeves of TAD emphasized that achieving sustainability and the Triple Bottom Line requires design thinking—applying a structured approach to problem-solving that integrates people, planet, and profit into decision-making.

TAD’s approach begins with key questions: What benefits do we gain from the technology we already have? What are the gaps and what should we consider for the future? The replies determine where technology intervention is needed by mapping ideal experience goals and identifying key user personas—employees, visitors, and real estate managers. From there, the process aligns technology investments with ESG goals. Companies can drive environmental progress by extending product lifecycles, optimizing installations, and prioritizing governance while improving user experiences.

Barco: The Business Case for Eco-Design

Thomas Serbruyns of Barco illustrated how sustainable design can meet environmental goals and strengthen business performance. Recognizing that product impact is their biggest sustainability lever, Barco developed an eco-design strategy, including a proprietary eco-scoring model to evaluate energy efficiency, materials, packaging, and end-of-life considerations.

Barco embedded this model into their product development, ensuring that sustainability is assessed alongside cost and performance. The result? More energy-efficient optical components, reduced use of hazardous materials, and more intelligent resource allocation. For customers, this translates into lower energy bills and reduced material costs. And as raw material prices rise, Barco’s commitment to recycled materials keeps production costs in check—highlighting how sustainability is a business advantage, not a trade-off.

Shure: Packaging Innovation for Impact

Althea Ricketts of Shure talked about how Shure has long prioritized sustainability across its operations, with a people-first philosophy dating back 100 years to its founder. Shure’s most recent sustainability focus areas have been packaging and material innovation.

When redesigning packaging for one of its most popular microphones, Shure achieved a 30% reduction in its packaging footprint, significantly decreasing material use and shipping emissions. Shure has also committed to transitioning to 100% recycled and/or renewable packaging materials by 2030, and they’re ahead of schedule. These efforts reduce waste and lower costs, giving us a clear example of how sustainability and profitability go hand in hand.

Legrand: Circular Economy Leadership

Kathryn Gaskell showed how Legrand embraces the circular economy by designing products for longevity and reuse. A standout example is their projection screen refurbishment initiative—replacing only the screen surface rather than the entire unit. This simple shift extends product lifespan, saves customers money, and reduces carbon emissions from manufacturing and transport.

Transparency is another core pillar of Legrand’s sustainability strategy. By publishing Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), Health Product Declarations (HPDs), and Declare Labels, Legrand provides customers with the information they need to make sustainable purchasing decisions. Their leadership in product transparency is helping to set a new standard for accountability across the industry.

Collaboration: The Key to Industry-Wide Sustainability

The panelists agreed — no company can achieve sustainability in isolation. The AV industry thrives on connectivity, and sustainability must be approached the same way. AVIXA is the common ground that connects us all, providing a forum for pre-competitive collaboration where companies can share best practices, align on industry standards, and accelerate collective impact.

By working together, companies can identify opportunities across the value chain, leverage shared data and insights, and scale solutions that drive efficiency and innovation. As the panelists emphasized, sustainability is cooperative, not competitive—and the businesses that collaborate will lead the way in shaping a more resilient, profitable future for the AV industry.

Conclusion: The Future is Sustainable—and Profitable

Sustainability is more than an environmental commitment—it’s a strategic growth driver. Companies that align their business models with people, planet, and profit don’t just mitigate risk; they unlock new opportunities, strengthen customer and investor relationships, and position themselves for long-term success.

As this panel discussion demonstrated, sustainable AV businesses don’t just survive—they thrive. By working together, we can ensure that our industry leads the way in innovation, impact, and profitability for years to come.

Join the Movement

The AVIXA Sustainability Advisory Group is calling on all industry stakeholders to take part in shaping a more sustainable future. Whether your focus is product design, systems integration, operations, or user experience, you can drive meaningful change.
