Instead of limiting the human interaction between student and professor, wireless technology has actually increased interaction. Since some questions can be answered by e-mail, students and faculty can get to know each other on a more personal level during office hours. While the wireless connectivity hasn't turned classrooms into paperless environments, it has eliminated some of the paper shuffle that occurs. Many classes have also gone to CD-ROMs in lieu of textbooks. Aside from getting the thumbs-up from our students, the faculty members in the laptop curricula have also been very receptive to the new wireless environment.
Fewer cords means less setup time for class lectures.
Since professors are able to work anywhere on campus via their laptops, they are also taking advantage of the increased mobility and freedom the products have provided. Raylink's suite of products has also allowed our faculty more latitude to finish work away from their offices on campus. Moreover, our relationship with Raylink has been very positive. The company was extremely responsive and reacted very quickly to one of our emergency product requests. Everything we asked for arrived the next business day.
