Approval – what now?
• Start buying gear • Figure out what rooms
to turn into model tech classrooms
• talk to scheduling offices in Kelowna, Vernon, Salmon Arm & Penticton to identify suitable spaces
• goals: get as many instructors as possible into these classrooms • let instructors request the room when building the schedule • make sure there is sufficient free time for drop in and exploration
![Page 31: Model Technology Enhanced Classrooms](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052820/546df468b4af9f8e2c8b56b4/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Testing / documentation• Figuring out how things work
Discoveries: • HDMI switching delay • Can annotate over other
sources (but requires menu on remote)
• Document camera software too complex for untrained user
![Page 44: Model Technology Enhanced Classrooms](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052820/546df468b4af9f8e2c8b56b4/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Installation Challenges
• Pre-conceived notions of how teaching works • “Why would the instructor want their
powerpoint on 2 screens at once?” • Ownership vs. standards
• 4 instructor workstations each set up in a different way
• 4 campuses of equal value = lowest common denominator
• Leave existing projection screens in place

A selection of interesting comments:
What worked, what didn’t, what would you change?
![Page 67: Model Technology Enhanced Classrooms](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052820/546df468b4af9f8e2c8b56b4/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
I found it complicated. Setup was difficult. I had to get AV help at least five times this semester.
The wiring was so jumbled, and other users kept changing the plugs and settings.
Sometimes multiple display use seemed like overkill.
The document camera would be more useful if it was elevated so I could stand and see my class.
TV has a wide aspect ratio which doesn’t fit well with the usual course content.

What to do next?
• $8000/yr ongoing funding • clickers? • replace HDMI matrix to solve delay? • tidy up cable runs? • ???
