Question

Gwen has a photo she’d like to display in her speech, but she forgot to digitize it. She only has a hard copy, and she doesn’t have time to scan it before her speech. Which type of visual media in the classroom would be helpful to Gwen in this situation? a. document camera b. traditional whiteboard

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Document camera

Explanation:

Document cameras, which are also known as visual presenters or visualisers, digital overheads, or docucams. They are real-time image capture devices for displaying an object to a large audience. Just like an opaque projector, a document camera is able to magnify and project the images of actual, three-dimensional objects, as well as transparencies. They are, simply put, high resolution web cams, that is mounted on arms so as to facilitate their placement over a page.

This makes it easier and convenient for a teacher, lecturer or presenter to write on a sheet of paper or to display a two or three-dimensional object while the audience watches.

In Theory, the document camera can be used to display all objects.

Gwen only needs to place her photo under a document camera and deliver her speech while the image will be displayed for the class.
