Reliability – Nothing is 100% reliable. We have 160+ rooms and 6 staff, so our rooms are designed for automation with help phone assistance, not on-site support. Glitches and interruptions in service do happen, but we will do our best to rectify the problem if you call us on the help phone. It’s always good to have a backup plan.
- Laptops:
- Often, a laptop’s settings need adjustment the first time it’s used in a room, or after an OS/app/program update. It’s better to do this beforehand than at the start of your first class.
- We do not supply adapters. You must provide the appropriate adapter for your laptop.
- Reboot your laptop frequently. This is the first line of defense when there is a problem.
- Keep your OS/apps/programs up to date.
- The best way to do this is to allow auto updates.
- Streaming Media (Netflix, Hulu, etc):
- We cannot guarantee that your laptop will allow copyright-protected content to be streamed in a classroom.
- The lecture capture devices will not record or stream Streaming Media content due to copyright protection.
It is highly recommended that you test your materials before presenting them in class.
