Upgrades of our social work classrooms and clinical skills lab will be beneficial for both students and faculty. The existing hardware in the rooms is outdated and an upgrade will bring them in line with the classroom standard across the Florida Atlantic University campus. The requested upgrades should be sufficient to meet the needs of students and faculty for at least the next 5 years.
CLINICAL SKILLS LAB SO123/SO124 UPGRADES
- The skills lab is used frequently throughout the semester as a requirement for students in practice classes and advanced interviewing and clinical interventions. They are instructed to record an interview session with another student.
- The current procedures for students to burn
their videos sessions to VHS and DVD is time consuming and can be difficult to
comprehend. Most professors and students no longer use VHS and DVDs.
- The camera in the interview room can be
difficult to position and sometimes gets out of alignment
- Replacing the equipment in the room will make it easier for students to record their videos.
- Having a HD recording device will allow students to transfer videos to flash drives or post on the internet, making the process easier for both students and faculty reviewers.
- The process will save money on the cost of purchasing DVDs for the students
- A fixed camera will eliminate any positioning problems in the interview room
SO111/SO112/SO315/SO318 UPGRADES
- The proposed upgrade will give rooms that need them document cameras which will be useful to faculty
- The proposed upgrade will provide touch panels, eliminating the need for the white projector remotes in 2 of the rooms
- The rooms will be equipped with a digital
connection allowing users with Mac laptops access to the projector (the current connection is analog which effects the interface with newer computers).
- All proposed upgrades of classrooms will bring them in line with the classroom standard for the university and will ensure all of our faculty are teaching at this level.
