Smart Classrooms put technology within your easy reach. These rooms make the learning experience more enjoyable for both faculty and students. In them, faculty can project many types of images onto a large screen. For instance,

• you can project a computer image: an Internet Web site, Blackboard page, PowerPoint presentation, digitally scanned slides or any other computer document, file or program.
• you can project an image from your laptop computer or tablet.
• you can play a DVD or VHS videotape.
• through your document camera, you can project an image from a book, paper, transparency or three-dimensional object. Some models have the ability to capture or freeze images, or read information off a memory card or flash drive.
• if your room contains an interactive whiteboard, you can annotate over projected information, or use it as a whiteboard with capture features.

Over ninety five percent of all classrooms on campus have permanently installed technology. Faculty members may request a smart classroom when their courses require them to use large amounts of video, computer or Internet access on a regular basis. See your department chair if you are interested in teaching in a smart classroom.

Most smart rooms at SUNY New Paltz contain an instructor's station with computer connected to the academic network. Rooms will have a ceiling-mounted data/video projector or interactive whiteboard, sound system, document camera, electric screen, control system and connection for laptop.  Some rooms also contain a DVD/VCR.

Classroom orientation, training or assistance is always available. Call Diane at x3633 days or Keron at x3639 evenings to schedule a ten minute orientation session.  Our sessions are on an individual basis and will thoroughly acquaint you with the technology available in your room.
