Tech Tip of the Week: Remind Students to Pre-test Presentations

From the IT Group:

Mid-way through the semester is almost here and students are busy working on presentations to share with the class. Please remind them before their big day that they should test their presentation in advance using the technology in the classroom. This will give them an opportunity to catch any issues or incompatibilities ahead of time.

Also, if you or your students have a Macintosh computer and would like to use it in the classroom, the HelpDesk has adaptors available to borrow. Simply complete a Media Equipment Request form 48 hours in advance.

If you plan to make a DVD to share with your class, please test that in advance as well. Not all homemade DVDs work seamlessly in the technology provided in the classroom.

As always, in case you need it, the HelpDesk will respond immediately to any classroom emergency, and we are always available to provide you with additional training. Feel free to contact us at 358-2532, e-mail helpdesk@keene.edu or stop by our office on the 2nd floor of Elliot Hall.
