11. Discussion?

12. Two More Things….
Help to advance the use of classroom technology at CSU

13. 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

14. 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

15. 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:

16. 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

17. 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
