Inventive Technology, Inc.

As we have been evaluating key components on the Intelligent Classroom, we were looking for a video distribution system. Well we found it, and then some! MediaCAST is really the center piece to the Intelligent Classroom. With the easy to manage data warehouse, curriculum can now  be a shared project across the district. Librarians and Media Specialists are very important. In the past they were responsible for handing out VHS and DVD's. Now they can "Electronically" check them out. Helping protect the districts from copy write violations. It handles almost every file type out there and works incredibly with Smart Technologies Interactive White Boards, and our competing chosen brand, eInstructions.   United Systems is the only approved dealer in Oklahoma or Arkansas.

Schools and school districts need good solutions and financing.  Inventive Technology offers a range of products that are eligible under the Federal E-Rate funding program.  MedaCAST has curriculum creation tools, and can help tie the curriculum to State and Federal Standards.  It is not too early to think about what your plans for next year's E-Rate could be! MediaCAST has an estimated 70% of  its components are E-Rate Eligible. 

Media Rich Curriculum is very important. Check out how Boulder Valley School District has integrated MediaCAST into their school district.

 

 

MediaCAST combines a Web-enabled learning management system with the tools to create, manage and deliver live and on-demand IP multimedia anytime, anywhere.  It is a feature-rich, easy-to-use and efficient platform for creating and managing multimedia content and delivering online learning programs.  

The MediaCAST platform integrates media management and learning content management capabilities into an easy-to-use toolset:

  • Content Repository
  • On-Demand Digital Library
  • Media Creation Tools
  • Copyright Management                                                                                   
  • Metadata Management                                                                             
  • Standards Correlation

The MediaCAST repository feature is the nucleus of the system.  It holds all of your digital content formats, provides management features that allow you to work with all your existing content and tools to collaborate and create new, "user-generated" content.  It enables you to centralize your activities and to create, store, manage and deliver digital content effectively.    

Expansion modules are used for multimedia course construction, interactive classrooms, e-portfolios, videoconferencing, media conversion, live IP TV, on-demand video encoding, wireless broadcasting or digital signage.

 

The Digital Learning Repository is critical for the Intelligent Classroom. It is one thing to have the United Streaming Video, it is another to be able to incorporate the video into a lesson plan and tie it to state standards.

 Live Video and Broadcasts are becoming more important. Tyler Public Schools is using the live video features to have the kids read the morning news. Not only are the kids learning life skills, they are having a blast and they do not even know they are learning skills, and self-confidence.

Tyler Texas has been running MediaCAST for 4 years and has been really enjoying the product. The teachers and staff have been able to impact kids lives with the use of MediaCAST. For the Tyler Case Study,Click Here.
