Technology-enhanced classrooms

Technology-enhanced classrooms are located throughout the campus. These hyflex classrooms are designed to enhance the integration of technology into the curriculum. Nearly all of the classrooms here at UIS are outfitted with this advanced technology:

  • Instructor Station with Computer
  • LCD Projector / Flat Panel Display
  • Room Control System
    • The Room Control System is an interface that allows you to turn on/off the different components in the classroom, allows you to switch between the different inputs in the classroom, and control other functions of the classroom components. These systems are available in University Hall and several other rooms across campus.
  • Document Camera
    • Document Cameras are available in most of the classrooms; however, if you need one in a classroom that does not have one, please contact ITS Client Services to request one.
  • Classroom Microphone
