• Presentation Classroom
• Collaborative Computer Classroom

Look at the complete list of classrooms.

A presentation classroom contains a ceiling-mounted data projector, two computers (1 Macintosh, 1 PC), VCR, DVD player, and a document camera. The computers, VCR, DVD player, and document camera are generally physically located in a lectern at the front of the classroom. In many of the rooms, a 35mm slide projector is mounted separately in the classroom. Additionally, there are connections for laptop computers to connect into the presentation system. These rooms do not have computers for student use.

A computer classroom has computers for students to use; usually 1 to 4 students per computer.There will only be one platform (PC or Mac) for student use and the instructor's computer will be the same platform as the students.

A laptop classroom has a ceiling-mounted data projector and a combination DVD/VCR player. There is a connection for a laptop computer. There is no installed computer in the classroom.
