Get the Most Out of Your Smart Classroom Experience!


Technicians from Information Technology have tested projectors, speakers, doc cameras, and DVD players within each smart classroom on campus over the last couple of weeks making sure they are fully operational for the upcoming Fall semester. To get the most out of your smart classroom experience, Information Technology recommends that you visit the classroom that you will be teaching in and familiarize yourself with all of the controls on the podium. Another way to learn about your classroom and about smart classrooms in general is by visiting this link, which is on the Information Technology website. This page will give you information on technologies which are included in your smart classroom, as well as direct you to smart classroom training, and smart classroom support. As a reminder, support is always available to you. From Monday through Thursday 7am-7pm and Friday 7am-5pm, you will have access to onsite support; this means that you simply need to pick up the phone located on podium (which will automatically dial the Technical Support Center) and inform the representative of your problem and they will dispatch a technician immediately. Smart classrooms calls are top priority for the Technical Support Center. Outside the aforementioned hours, support will still be available to you. Simply pick up the same phone at the podium, and a representative will assist you over the phone. Please use this resource for any problems that might occur with the equipment. For training on how to use the equipment in these rooms, please refer to the smart classroom link, or contact CETL to schedule a training session. For more information about the types of smart classrooms please visit the link or visit the most recent newsletter and visit the article titled, “More Smart Classrooms Being Added”. Have a wonderful week!
