Teaching spaces by use-case scenario
The following table shows the different types of technology-equipped spaces and how installed technology is suited for teaching both in-person and remote students synchronously. For more information regarding installed equipment and/or to check how your assigned teaching space is classified, click on the space-type.
| Space | Lecture/Presentation | Discussion/Interaction | Group Projects | Screen Sharing | Annotation | Whiteboard Capture |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| HyFlex 1 | Great | OK | OK | Great | Great | Not Equipped2 |
| HyFlex 2 | Great | Great | OK | Great | Great | Not Recommended2 |
| HyFlex 2A (lecture hall) | Great | Not Equipped1 | Not Equipped | Great | Great | Not Recommended2 |
| Standard Classroom | Not Equipped1 | Not Equipped1 | Not Equipped | Not Equipped1 | Not Equipped1 | Not Equipped |
1 Additional technology, such as portable microphones and/or cameras, is available to borrow from the Digital Media Studio (DMS).
2 If you write on whiteboards, you will need to do so either on an annotation capable device such as the instructor station SMART podium, or use the provided document camera which can be used with Zoom. For more information on using annotation in instruction, see Lecture Annotation in Screen Sharing
Suggested approach for teaching in non-HyFlex spaces
The vast majority of laptops come built-in with cameras and microphones, which can be used to easily capture (record/stream) your lectures/presentations regardless of teaching in a physical classroom to an in-person audience or recording in a private/office space on your own. If you wish to hold in-class discussion or group-based work with students, there are a few options. One, fully-remote option is to conduct your session entirely via Zoom using breakout rooms. Alternatively, in a hybrid setting, you could borrow additional equipment, such as a portable microphone/speaker from the DMS so both in-person and remote students can interact. Placement of the microphone/speaker is most important to best capture audio from anyone who will be interacting during the session. It's possible to do this, as a last resort, by simply placing your laptop in a position that allows its built-in microphone to effectively capture audio from anyone speaking within reasonable distance/loudness/clarity.
