Classroom Technology
For on-campus classes, classroom equipment is available for use 6:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. seven days a week for the duration of each academic term and during finals week. Visit the Classroom Technology page on blink to learn how to request and use technology in UC San Diego classrooms, and get information about general assignment lecture halls and classrooms on the Classroom Details page.
The following upgrades have been made to support on-campus and hybrid instruction.
Classroom support personnel will be on call throughout the quarter to address any needs or questions, and are available to meet before the quarter begins for a classroom AV refresher. Email servicedesk@ucsd.edu or call 858-534-5784 for assistance or to schedule an in-classroom prep visit.
PLEASE NOTE: Lecture halls and large classrooms require the use of a lapel mic, rather than a fixed ceiling microphone. If you are teaching in one of these rooms and do not feel comfortable reusing a lapel mic, you may request your own dedicated lapel mic to use throughout the quarter. Please click here to request one (one mic per person please).
