days of summer.<\/p>\n<p>As the start of the fall term draws closer, Educational Technology Services wanted to share a few different ways that you can get oriented to the technology in your classroom and get classroom technology support.<\/p>\n<h3>Look up your classroom on the Online Classroom Inventory (OCI)<\/h3>\n<p>Did you know that there is a website where you can look up your classroom to see what it looks like and what the room features are?\u00a0 Using the Online Classroom Inventory (OCI), you can:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Search Chapman classrooms by building, by feature, by capacity, or by category (laboratory, active learning classroom, etc.).<\/li>\n<li>View photos of your classroom.<\/li>\n<li>Check which amenities (whiteboards, furniture, Apple TV, etc.) are available.<\/li>\n<li>Check the Zoom room type (Prime, Flexcam, or Connect).<\/li>\n<li>Find quick start videos and guides that show how to use the classroom technology!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a

classroom?\u00a0 Maybe you would like to get oriented to the classroom technology, or you need a refresher on <a

rel=\"attachment noopener wp-att-6223 noreferrer\">Teaching Untethered with Apple TV<\/a>.\u00a0 These last days of summer are a great opportunity to spend some time in your classroom before it is full of students!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/outlook.office365.com\/owa\/calendar\/ServiceDesk1@chapman.edu\/bookings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Book an In-Person

minute break between classes.\u00a0 If you schedule an in-person classroom tech assist 15 minutes before your class time, there may be a class finishing up in the classroom, and you may need to wait 5 minutes for the class to end before entering the classroom.<\/p>\n<h3>Dial x6666 for classroom technology help<\/h3>\n<p>When you are teaching this fall, look for the phone in your classroom.\u00a0
