Project Description

Interactive Learning Space 2

Interactive Learning Space 2 (ILS 2 / E3-G034) is a space in the Central Teaching Building that enables an instructor and all 40 students in the classroom to participate in online meetings*. The classroom is ideal for oral defenses, conferences, or a “global classroom.”

  • One 4K camera with auto-tracking is mounted at the rear of the classroom,
  • One 4K wide-angle camera is at the front of the classroom, facing students,
  • Ten professional wireless microphones (1 x clip-on, 1 x handheld, 4 x gooseneck, 4 x tabletop) around the classroom enable “hands-free” online meetings and classes,
  • A dedicated Zoom PC is installed for online meetings,
  • The room seats 20 to 40 students, depending upon the seating arrangement,
  • Features a u-shaped seating arrangement and large whiteboards.

* Note that the video conferencing equipment​ is connected to a mini-pc in the lectern and must be used with that mini-pc.

.

Using the UM resource booking system, an interactive room can be requested for one time course activities, a limited number of class meetings (fewer than three), or regularly scheduled courses.

When requesting a CTLE space using our booking system, please provide the course code and instructor’s name and a description of the classroom activities.

 

To request an ILS for regularly-scheduled teaching and learning activities in the upcoming semester, academic staff will need to contact administrative staff in the general office of their home Faculty/Unit.

Colleagues who will use the spaces are highly encouraged to attend a 10-minute introduction to the classroom equipment prior to using the spaces. Request an introduction by using the booking system and leave a remark. Also, let CTLE know if you will use the laptop in the classroom extensively and we can create an account for your use during the current semester.

.

To help academic staff make use of the classroom equipment, we encourage staff to take a minute to review quick start videos and important reminders at https://ctle.um.edu.mo/resource/video_guide/. * Note that the video conferencing equipment​ is connected to the mini-pc in the lectern and must be used with that mini-pc.

For inquiries on the above rooms please contact our administrative staff Fernando Wong at ext. 8020 or ctle@um.edu.mo.
