Audio Visual Classroom Setup question

Greetings Fellow Teknoids;

Due to budget cuts that has cut own our student aide hiring, starting this semester we are having faculty responsible for setting up their own technology. We are doing training sessions and providing documentation for each of our different classroom setups (we have five different classroom configurations). We will be providing support only if they have a problem with the technology in the room.

Have any of you gone this route? And what advice can you give me on what to expect as far as pitfalls, or advice on training faculty.

Greatly appreciated as always. Thanks in advance.

RE: Audio Visual Classroom Setup question

We've worked for some time with a presumption that faculty would handle their own media, and I'd say it's worked about as well as one might reasonably hope. (i.e., Most who are "into it" enough to want to use it generally do OK with it.) We do provide a hotline phone near the console. We also provide video instructions, linked from the room PC desktops. See, for example, http://law.richmond.edu/library/multimedia/102.html .

Advisory Opinion Re Kosovo

Hello

It seems that we encounter serious problems of access on the site of the International Court of Justice.

One of our professors must make a conference in a few hours and he would need of the full text version of decision of this morning about "Advisory Opinions Re: Kosovo"

If one of you have an electronic document, it would be more useful (very)

Many thanks

RE: Audio Visual Classroom Setup question

Much credit to our multi-media guy, Carl Hamm, who made the videos. I think he did an excellent job of spelling things out in a way that anticipates user needs. My favorite touch is his visual alert that the video is silent so the user can watch it without distracting the audience (and not freak out about the room audio not working).
