Concepts for inspirational learning worlds VS at didacta 2017

VS Vereinigte Spezialmöbelfabriken will be present at didacta 2017 with its ideas for "Inspirational Learning Worlds". From 14th to 18th February, this leading supplier of school furniture and equipment will demonstrate the link between room and media concepts in the schools of the future at its two trade fair stands. Room solutions that meet the multifaceted demands of teaching At the VS stand in Hall 8/A12, the focus will be placed on equipment concepts that turn schools into all-embracing learning, working and living environments for students and teachers. Using the VS variable furniture solutions, it is an easy task to design different learning worlds within one and the same space. The actual arrangement depends crucially on the way information is communicated. Depending on the situation, this makes it possible to create spaces for shared or individual, collaborative or differentiated, teacher-centered or self-driven learning. The second focus of attention, which VS will present in Hall 10/E10: Room solutions for learning, teaching and working with digital media. As a system supplier, the company offers a comprehensive package of media and services that respond to a range of educational and methodological demands. The VS portfolio includes displays and interactive boards, a full range of equipment for tablet classes and teacher workstations, as well as WLAN installations and even integrated systems. Visitors to the trade fair will also learn how this technology can be put to effective use in practice and integrated in the room concept. VS's experts will be available to answer all questions relating to planning and implementation and help schools get the very best out of the possibilities the digital world offers. And this year, once again, there will be a combination of ergonomics and fun to take away. At the "Hokki Original" sales stand in Hall 8/B01, the active stool will be available at a special trade fair price.
