CIS maintains hybrid learning classrooms, as to facilitate easier interactions between remote students and in-person participants. Below is the list of current hyflex classrooms and their available tech.
...
To schedule meetings ahead of time for students and for ease of content sharing during your meeting, we recommend using your personal SPU Zoom account to start the meeting on the podium PC or your SPU laptop and simply inviting the Zoom Room to co-host.
To Get Started: simply touch the Logitech Tap touchscreen, unlock it with passcode: 778338 (SPUEDU on the keypad), and on your main Zoom device (podium PC or laptop), invite the relevant Zoom Room account after you have started the meeting. Then accept the meeting on the unlocked touchscreen.

Make sure to make the Zoom Room account a co-host to control more directly from the touchscreen. |
To Share Content: Share content directly from your device running the meeting.
...
To display your content to the in-person students too, make sure to use the classroom PC or plug in your laptop to the HDMI and turn on the projector.
To Invite Users: If you didn’t invite all the users ahead of time when scheduling the meeting, you can invite them directly from the device running the meeting, or from the touchscreen (if the Zoom Room account is joined as co-host) in the Invite section > select SPU contacts under the Contacts tab or email the Zoom link directly under the Email tab.
Other: Make sure to go to View > turn off Mirror Effect to ensure that the remote users won’t see any of your whiteboard writing as backward

If you want to schedule the meeting and invite users ahead of time, navigate to the section above: Our Recommended Use Case. |
To Share Content: you can select the Share Content button, which will provide the Sharing Key for the Zoom desktop application, as well as the browser URL for content sharing if you are using a webpage on the device you are sharing content with. You can share content with your laptop, iPhone/iPad, or the classroom PC.

When using the Share Content function, the option to see the Gallery or Dynamic view of remote users is grayed out. Thus, if you want to share content to remote students but still see a gallery view of remote students on the TV, you must join the meeting as a full participant. Make sure to add yourself as a co-host or host if you have turned off Share Screen for normal participants (see the Security section below). You can yourself as co/host by selecting Participants > select your user > Make Host or Make Co-Host. Then to see remote users while content sharing, you can select View from the touchscreen meeting menu and select Gallery/Dynamic view. You can also select Gallery/Dynamic directly if you run the meeting & share content directly from your personal account, as seen in To Share Content in the Our Recommended Use Case section above. |
