If you plan on using technology in your Summer 2007 face-to-face classes, please submit an AV request by May 18, 2007. For the Fall semester, please submit requests by August 17, 2007. Requests can be submitted using a web form or by calling AV services at ext. 5-3885. After completing and submitting the form, remember that all equipment requests are subject to availability and are not considered confirmed until you receive a return email.
For future reference: All faculty can determine which rooms have specific A/V equipment by using the "Find Tech Classrooms" link under the "Class Tech Links" mentioned on the myBlackboard tab. However, when scheduling a room assignment from Academic Services (through your department scheduling coordinator) it's best to ask for specific room attributes (including technology) rather than ask for a specific room. Because of demand, you may not get the specific room you want, but Academic Services tries to provide a similar room, if they know what you want.
If you want to schedule a computer lab, please review the reservation process on the OIT web site. Note: If you need to have specialized software installed on all workstations in a computer lab, the deadline to do so is August 1, 2007, for use in the Fall 2007 software. OIT needs this lead time to test, install and incorporate the your software into a base lab “image” or copy that is used to manage all OIT labs.
