The illustration above is an example of a single monitor dual screen media lectern. Some University Classrooms have dual projectors, also known as a dual screen environment. The main advantage of these single monitor dual screen media learning spaces is having two projectors/screens that can be used to display more than one source of content. While using the system you may use the screens together or independently via the A/V control panel interface.
Controlling the single monitor dual screen media capability in a University Classroom is dependent on the type of A/V control panel interface, so it is not standard. While some of the button names vary, the process is typically similar.
