VCU Classroom Technology

Every semester I send out an email to faculty who teach in our Centrally Supported Classrooms to see how the technology worked for them as well as to see if they have any concerns or requests of which they would like to make us aware.  In an effort to make sure we can reach as many people as possible, I’m adding the survey link to our blog.  If you’ve taken our surveys in the past, you know that we do our best to be mindful of your time by asking you to only answer questions about topics that apply to you. We’ve been collecting information from surveys like this since 2015.  Feedback from surveys like this have brought things like document cameras into every classroom and articulated arms for the podium computers. It also helped us identify locations for piloting new technologies like wireless presentation.

We also get feedback related to classrooms or issues that my team doesn’t have direct control over, but we try and get that information to the right groups. New this semester, in collaboration with Facilities Management and the Offices of the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs, we’ve added a section specifically related to the classroom environment. So if you have issues with the lights, furniture, the room temperature, etc, there is a specific section for this feedback on this survey. Of course, as with the other sections, if you have no comments about the classroom environment, you can skip that section.

Thank you in advance for your time!

Have a GREAT Summer!
