Our professionals are equipped to provide solutions to the broad range of issues facing schools. Spectrum’s CEE includes professionals who have specialized in school air quality, energy modeling, energy efficient designs and designs that enhance educational environments. We employ two engineers who are LEED® AP (approved professionals) and have designed innovative and efficient comfort systems including those utilizing thermal displacement ventilation (TDV) in educational settings. Crucial to students’ ability to learn is their ability to hear. Our acoustical engineers and technology systems designers frequently are called upon to design acoustical assistive listening technologies for schools.
Make each lesson count—After life-safety and comfort, presentation of lessons may be the single most important factor affecting success in education. Spectrum’s K-12 CEE includes technologists who specialize in communications, audio/video (A/V), pro-sound and other low voltage systems. Our technology designers understand the correlation between A/V-enhanced presentations and increased comprehension, and design systems and controls that make it easy to use these technologies.
Group & individual learning. Technology-enhanced learning environments. Multi-media instruction. Memorable & seamless presentation of lessons. State-of-the-art computer labs. Classroom acoustics. Energy modeling & energy efficient designs. Good indoor air quality. Sound reinforcement. Daylighting, task lighting and glare-free lighting. These are the elements that create more effective learning environments for students and a more effective teaching environment for educators.
