We would like to upgrade the technology in two master classrooms. The classrooms support many colleges and programs, including Business, English, Journalism, etc. The classrooms hold 55 weekly class meetings for approximately 1200 students each week. The equipment on these classrooms is outdated, in particular the audio and video equipment. The projectors are dim when using the full lights in the classroom. The classrooms still have the original AMX controllers that are 17 years old, the rooms have the old wooden teacher desks (with missing doors) and the old black equipment racks. We also need to upgrade the ELMO equipment and provide for both HDMI/VGA/Audio connections for laptop users (many users from other departments come with Mac computers and need to connect to the projectors). We also would like to wire the classrooms to make it ready to support lecture captures via a USB port in the back of the room.
