The College has created a variety of room configurations in response to faculty requests for different types of faculty/student and student/student interaction. These rooms have different student capacities and each may not be available on the day and time requested.
 

Different layouts include:

classroom





A typical TEC4 room with individual student workstations.
This room includes a ceiling-mounted digital projector.






This special configuration is only found in B2-23. It is currently used primarily for New Student orientation sessions conducted by Counseling and Financial Aid.

Room type 1

room type 2





A small number of “perimeter arrangement” configurations are available and have a smaller capacity of either 20 or 25 students. Each has a central conference table allowing students to work either at the PC or in group arrangements.

These rooms are: B2-02, B2-19, C3-15, NE212, and NW112.
 





By far the most common and most requested classroom layout, these rooms sometimes have a horizontal aisle across the middle of the room to facilitate faculty access to individual students. This configuration allows a faculty member at the front to see a large number of student monitors at one time and keeps the monitor from obscuring sight lines between student and instructor.

room type 3

room type 4





This “pod” arrangement complements group projects and studio-type instruction by placing students in groups of four with eye-to-eye contact across the desks. A small number of these rooms support general instruction as well as specific requests from Biology and Allied Health sciences. These rooms are W4-27 and W4-28.
