There is a rolling programme of student and staff training for the videoconferencing rooms.
Students
may find themselves at the remote end of a conference without a member
of staff present and will need to know how to get into their local VC
room and project the lecture onto the screens. Training sessions for
students will be held just prior to, or occasionally just after, the
first lecture in a course. Where it isn't possible to do the training
before the first session, one of the SUPA Learning Technology team will
be on hand to set up the first conference. Student, please log into
My.SUPA and check the Calendar for dates of these training sessions.
Hands-on
training for staff continues to be available on demand. Sessions take
no longer than 15 minutes. Staff are invited to book a session with one
of the SUPA Learning Technologists well before their first lecture. In
addition to 'driving the desk,' there may well be issues about logins
and network access for laptops.
Further Video South training
sessions will be available as and when the VC rooms in Dundee, Paisley,
St Andrews and Strathclyde come on line. These will be advertised here
in My.SUPA and on the main website.
