Improvements to the Vanderbilt Hall Classrooms
We are delighted to announce that the ITS Media Services has finished a comprehensive technology and podium renovation in all of the Vanderbilt Hall classrooms.
As we all know, the old equipment in the Van Hall classrooms lived well beyond its life expectancy and this work has been a long time in coming.
Listed below are a few of the changes we made to improve the user experience for teaching in these rooms:
- new podiums with improved ergonomics (height adjustable and larger workspace area)
- widescreen digital HD projection
- easy-to-use touchscreen controls
- a new digital sound system
- an integrated recording solution for all class recording requests
For an overview of the new classroom setup, please take a moment to watch our video (you will need Silverlight to watch it – and if you already watch Netflix on your computer, then you already have Silverlight installed).
We have a few people to thank on this project. First off, we would like to thank Barry Adler who gave us valuable guidance on the design’s direction. We would also like to thank Lillian Zalta and her team for their help. Finally, we would like to thank Tolga Ergunay and the rest of our ITS colleagues for their energy and support on this project.
If you are interested in hands on training, we will be happy to arrange it. We encourage you to contact us at AVRequest@exchange.law.nyu.edu to schedule a training session.
Thank You,
Kevin and Lisa
