Smart Classrooms

IT Services has launched an initiative to establish smart classrooms throughout the campus. These smart classrooms bring together tools to enhance the classroom environment.

Each of the multimedia smart classrooms have been equipped with a new projector mounted in the ceiling, a projector screen, and crestron control enabled lecterns with confidence monitors. Each lectern houses a computer workstation and has av inputs that can facilitate the use of a laptop, dvd/vcr, document camera or other media with RCA component connections.

Please refer to the Crestron Control Unit Instructions here for an explanation of how to control the various components and features available in the classroom. The Crestron Control Unit is also shown below.
