Room 407 Mathematics is one of two electronic
classrooms on the 400 level of Mathematics. 407 Math is a
collaborative electronic classroom seating 20 students,
including 1 adjustable station providing access for the
disabled. A high-speed printer using the Jake Printing
System also resides in the room. The printer, an HP 5si with
the Postscript option, is capable of printing double-sided
sheets. The instructor's equipment is enclosed in a rolling
wood cabinet. The classroom also serves as a computer lab
when classes are not scheduled for the room.
Instructor's Electronic Podium
The equipment available to the instructor includes a
ceiling-mounted Eiki LCD projector, which can
accept RGB and video inputs. Video is displayed on an seven
foot (100" diagonal) pull-down screen. The podium contains
the various electronic resources available to the
instructor. These include a Dell Optiplex PC, DVD player, VCR, and camera. The
Dell has a built-in CD-ROM drive and an Ethernet network
connection. Audio output is channeled through an amplifier that powers two bookshelf speakers located at the
front of the classroom.
A room customized touch panel controls the multimedia experience including the audio-visual equipment and the physical room environment (program volume).
Student Computers
Twenty PCs with 17" multisync monitors
capable of 1280 x 1024 resolution are available for students.
Students
can use the printer situated in the room or any other AcIS
location through the Jake
printing system. Student's desks
are set up around the periphery of the room and in a center
island. One student station has a movable desktop to
accommodate students with special access needs.
