In order to meet the new challenge of educational reform, Chinese University of Hong Kong and St. Bonaventure College & High School have implemented “VChina” cross cultural program since 2004. Under the AVCON video conferencing system which is sponsored by our company, they created distance classroom to facilitate cultural exchange activities. With this learning platform, the video image of teachers/students in local schools can be instantly displayed to foreign schools, and they can even make use of the whiteboard to highlight the specific points so as to optimize the distance classroom.
