Discussion?
Two More Things…. Help to advance the use of classroom technology at CSU
Request to re-allocate funding (1) FY 17: wireless microphone conversion was funded at $39,000 Actual expense after bid: $25,670 Available funds: $13,330 Goal: provide touch screens in all eight Walnut GA classrooms Walnut is almost equipped for lecture capture Electronic touch screens are needed Cost: $925 per unit = $7400
Request to re-allocate funding How will they be used? Instructor walks in, connects laptop and runs free whiteboard software Touch screen notations show on data projector Student visibility & readability are improved Notations can be saved for students No computer in lectern – less cost & maintenance CSUO, TILT and ACNS provide training
Request to re-allocate funding (2) Classroom Support is creating something most universities don’t have - a Demonstration Classroom used for faculty technology training Clark A68, now being modified by CSS:
Request to re-allocate funding (2) Classroom Support has most of the equipment needed to duplicate a lecture capture room Funding is needed for wireless microphone, touch screen electronic whiteboard, and short throw projector for Smartboard Microphone: $1200 Flat screen: $975 Projector: $1800 Total: $3975
Requests to re-allocate funding Part 1- electronic touch screens: $7,400 Part 2- demonstration classroom: $3,975 Total re-allocation request: $11,375 Return to UTFAB: $1,955
