Instructors & TAs – Schedule a classroom technology orientation

We can meet with instructors and/or TAs to go over classroom technology. Scheduling options are most flexible between quarters (Winter recess, Spring break, Summer); staff and classroom availability is limited while classes are in session. To request an orientation, contact us.

Alert: As of Winter 2025, the center screen is stuck in the down position

The center screen needs to be replaced. Unfortunately, Facilities Management budgetary constraints preclude replacing the screen this quarter. For whiteboard workarounds and more information, please see Active Issues – PCB 1100 center screen stuck in down position.
