Classroom List
Overview
The Office of the Registrar manages the assignment of classrooms each semester. Below you'll find a list of the technology available in all of the registrar-controlled classrooms, as well as information about which classrooms might be best for certain teaching scenarios.
All Registrar (non-departmental) classrooms have the following standard technology:
Projection or a large TV screen
Speakers
Connection for a laptop or document camera
Digital touchscreen control system
Most classrooms also have a classroom computer.
Some classrooms have Blu-ray players which support DVDs and CDs. If your classroom does not have one and you need one, please email classhelp@smith.edu.
As outlined below, a limited number of classrooms have additional technology.
Flexible Classrooms
These rooms have built-in cameras and microphones for both in-room and Zoom use, and multiple screens for viewing remote participants and shared content separately. They have mobile furniture and multiple projection screens to support group work and non-standard classroom layouts:
