Content

Before your first class of the semester:

  • Visit the rooms you'll be teaching in to see the room technology first-hand.  You can see a preview of the available technology by visiting the Classrooms with AirMedia links below.
  • Keep your computer operating system software and applications up to date.
  • Bookmark the room AirMedia URL in your browser for easy and quick access.
 
When presenting:
  • Close or mute any programs and notification that may popup or make noise such as email or instant messages.
  • Close software that you won't be using during your class.
  • When showing video, there are also volume controls within the AirMedia software and the Crestron touch panel.

Note: At this time, AirMedia does not support sound when played through Android devices.

 

Using the Pause Button:

The Pause button allows that user to temporarily stop presenting and does not require the user to reconnect when they want to start presenting again.

  • When you need to pause your presentation during discussion or other needs in the classroom
  • If you need to access another application and do not want to display that on screen

 

Using the Stop Button:

The Stop button will disconnect the user from the display, the user would need to go through the connection process again to present.

  • Use this button when you are complete with the presentation
  • If someone else needs to connect and present to the display
