The student technicians, under the direction of the program producer, operate the equipment in the control room during your program. They also prepare the room for you by setting the tables, microphones, and other instructional media. The site coordinators at each campus work with the originating campus production team in the distribution and collection of materials. They are also available to provide any technical support from the receive site that will help the instructor. Facilities Origination Classroom ITV classrooms are set up much like a conventional classroom with the teaching area in the front, and four or five rows of student stations facing the instructor.
Monitors located in the front of the room are for students in the origination classroom.
Receive Site Classroom A receive site classroom is basically equipped with a monitor and microphone or telephone. If the receive site has return video capabilities, a visual presenter may also be available. Check with the site coordinators on the specific equipment available. As a student in an ITV classroom, you MUST always use microphones in order for everyone to hear you. There are different types of microphones used throughout the system, so you may want to check with your site coordinator on its' use.
