IS Support - Classroom Technology

DePaul offers various types of Technology Equipped Classrooms which vary based on college needs and instruction type. Below are details regarding rooms that Information Services supports.

Traditional Classrooms: for in-person instruction, offers access to a desktop computer, LCD projector, laptop connectivity, and an audio amplifier. These rooms do not include technology for videoconferencing or recording of class meetings.

Zoom-Enabled Classrooms: are equipped with Zoom hardware and software to offer a flexible learning environment that allows some students to be physically present while others access the class online at the same time through Zoom. Two different set-ups are offered:

Zoom+ classrooms are equipped with a desktop computer, LCD projector, camera and microphone to host Zoom meetings and facilitate screen sharing and digital whiteboards as depicted in this diagram. Information Services supports seventy-three spread across the two campuses listed in these tables for the Lincoln Park Campus and Loop Campus and as shown in this video. View Zoom+ Room podium instructions.
HyFlex or Trimodal classrooms have the same features as Zoom+ Rooms and use additional cameras, including a document camera, to allow instructors to switch between screens. Trimodal Rooms use TV monitors instead of LCD projectors, one of which is an additional touch screen that can be used during meetings as depicted in this diagram. Information Services supports fifty-eight spread across the two campuses as listed in these tables for the Lincoln Park Campus and Loop Campus and as shown in this video.
