Each piece of equipment and cable is clearly marked with a standardized, color-coded tag indicating either all the parts included with a particular device or simplified instructions on how to use it. These classrooms offer faculty and instructors convenient opportunities to integrate media into their teaching and presentations. Each type of classroom is then further tailored for appropriate media delivery within that space. To reserve a media classroom, an instructor must first reserve it with the Office of the University Registrar, after which a reservation for the appropriate media cabinet key may be made with Multimedia Services. Users are encouraged to arrange for equipment training in advance of their class meeting.
Documentation is also available online.
Those who would like advice on which media classroom would best suit their instructional needs are welcome to call the Multimedia Services office prior to contacting the Office of the University Registrar. Multimedia Services staff can make classroom recommendations which will assist the Registrar in matching presentation technology needs with class size, dates, and times. For faculty and instructors who are either unable to pick up keys and equipment before class, or who have scheduled students to instruct the class on their behalf, Multimedia Services has implemented a proxy system. For more information on the Proxy Approval process, please contact the Multimedia Services office. The University Registrar schedules all classrooms on campus except those that are directly controlled by other departments.
