Gone are the days of blackboards and chalk. I can't say I'm sad to see those go. Who remembers that awful sound of chalk scratching? Yikes! While a chalkboard might have been cutting edge in the 19th century, today’s modern classroom is full of amazing electronic technology. And that’s the rub, there are so many options, especially when it comes to displays and presenting content to students.

A sound masking system can solve your office speech privacy problem. You may be asking if there is, in fact, a speech privacy problem in your office? Chances are your answer is yes, because it's the number one driver of workplace dissatisfaction. According to Cambridge Sound Management, 60% of open office employees are unhappy with their lack of speech privacy.
Are your conversations private? Whispering or even a conversation behind closed doors doesn't always guarantee someone else can't hear you.
With the rise of open office floor plans and the need to protect patient privacy, speech privacy has become more critical than ever before. So, what is sound masking, and how does it help speech privacy? Sound masking is a barely noticeable sound that is similar to airflow, but it's specially tuned to make human speech less intelligible.

We know it's tempting to want to do it all yourself; it happens to all of us in various aspects of life. Whether the motivation is money, time, or pride, you hold on to that project to complete yourself. However, we all know it can quickly become more of a burden on your time and money than you ever could have imagined. In the end, hiring professionals would have been best. If you are considering taking on a meeting space technology overhaul on your own, here are five signs you may want to go ahead and call in the professionals (also known as AV Integrators).
The business world has significantly changed over the past decade. You'll find lots of large open floor plan spaces, adjustable desks, and maybe even natural light if you're lucky enough to escape the fluorescent bulbs. As a way to adapt, we're now seeing a massive spike in huddle rooms or huddle spaces in every industry you can imagine.
