CHALLENGE

  • Properly equip school faculty with modern tools and training

  • Create a more engaging learning environment

  • Finding equipment that could withstand the typically high temperatures in Ica and Chincha

Universidad San Juan Bautista, a private institution, faces ongoing challenges in the educational landscape. Their goal is to keep both students and faculty at the forefront of technology. To achieve this, they’ve implemented a program to train and equip teachers with modern tools. 

Driven by continuous improvement and a vision of technological leadership, the university installed interactive displays in classrooms. This initiative aimed to create a more engaging and interactive learning environment, but they recognized it would require adaptation from everyone: administrative staff and faculty alike.

“It’s been an adjustment process,” says Evelyn Bardales, Academic Environments Director. “But our teachers have been very receptive and resourceful. They’ve gone beyond using the displays for basic presentations and videos, finding new ways to utilize them and make classes more engaging.”

Universidad San Juan Bautista emphasizes ongoing optimization of their educational processes, acknowledging technology’s vital role. “We constantly face challenges, but when it comes to student learning, we use technology to our advantage,” Bardales adds. “Interactive displays are a powerful tool to enhance our educational services, especially in a hybrid learning environment.”

SOLUTION

  • Implementation of ViewSonic® ViewBoard® interactive displays

  • Ongoing training of teaching staff

  • ViewBoard displays allowed for easy integration of student devices, fostering collaboration and a more interactive classroom environment

ViewSonic® ViewBoard® interactive displays fit perfectly with Universidad San Juan Bautista’s vision of technological leadership. This led to the acquisition and installation of ViewBoard interactive displays across their campuses in Lima, Chincha, and Ica.

The university deployed a total of 164 ViewBoard IFP8650 86-inch displays, and four ViewBoard IFP7550 75-inch displays. Notably, the 75-inch displays were installed in management offices. These also included VPC27-W55-O2 OPS units with powerful Ci7 processors, ensuring smooth operation and exceptional image quality.

It’s worth highlighting that Universidad San Juan Bautista boasts the largest network of interactive displays among private universities in Peru. This puts them at the forefront of educational technology and positions them as a highly equipped institution.

When selecting displays, the university prioritized models that could withstand the high temperatures typical of their Ica and Chincha campuses, along with factors like image quality and definition. ViewSonic ViewBoard interactive displays met these requirements perfectly.

“ViewBoard displays can handle the high temperatures of our town,” said Bardales. “This was a concern for our Ica campus, but the equipment has performed flawlessly.”

RESULT

  • ViewBoard interactive displays and effective teacher training led to more dynamic and interactive classes
  • Combination of the highquality displays and fast internet created a smoother and more enjoyable learning experience for both students and educators
  • With the largest network of interactive displays among private universities in Peru, the school showed leadership in educational technology

The implementation of interactive displays, along with ViewSonic’s teacher training expertise, has resulted in a positive learning environment for both students and faculty. Students are enthusiastic about the change, enjoying more dynamic and interactive classes. The displays allow them to easily connect their devices to the learning materials, fostering a more engaging experience.

“The students love it! The displays have excellent resolution and clarity, and combined with our high-speed internet, there are no signal connectivity issues,” said Bardales. “Students can connect for group work, and teachers can leverage this ViewBoard technology to become more participatory, making the educational process smoother and more enjoyable for everyone. We’re very pleased with ViewSonic.”

This investment aligns perfectly with the university’s vision of having both teachers and students equipped with modern technological tools.
