In this episode of “[Ask the Tech Coach](https://www.teachercast.net/episodes/ask-the-tech-coach/),”
Jeff sits down with Grant Woods from [AVer](https://www.averusa.com/) to discuss
how schools and districts should be maximizing their purchasing dollar when creating
hybrid or digital classrooms.

Together, we share the two ways to be thinking about your equipment purchasing:

 * Fully Installed
 * Fully Module

No matter if you are looking to outfit your classrooms with video cameras such as
the DL30 or to provide teachers with a mobile solution such as the M5, Aver has 
everything that you and your district need to be successful
