Narrative
The Geosciences department is requesting funds to upgrade the Technology/AV Equipment in our lecture classroom in the Science building, SE 417. Other than the instructional computer that we replaced this year, the existing equipment is woefully outdated and no longer meets the on-going demands of our courses and students. For the last two years we have had to “band-aide” the system numerous times and several key functions no longer work at all. Therefore, funding is being requested to modernize the Technology/AV Equipment to bring this classroom to current FAU-OIT standards. The plan would be to complete the project upgrades during the summer to be ready for Fall 2022 class. The number of students impacted is approximated 250 per semester. Courses are EVR 2017, GEO 6337, GLY 3730, GLY 4200C, GLY 4451, GLY 4500C, GLY 6746, GLY 6888, GLY 6934, GLY 4310C.
