Hybrid Update #10.5


A quick update this evening. The fabulous Jonathan Walker (Staff) and our install partners, Streamtec, have completed the weekend work updating rooms ready for tomorrow. 

If you have any issue in room, dial *1 for support.

I’m pleased to say that we have now upgraded 23 teaching rooms and three lecture theatres to the Dual-Mode design. You can find the full updated list on the room tracking webpage, but this means we’ve actually surpassed our previous target by a Geography lab and three lecture theatres. Each room has been inspected and will be checked again tomorrow to catch any of the teething problems that even with the best will in the world, are inevitable with this kind of rapid install work. 

Please note that one such teething problem means that if you using Fulton F20, Mathew 5016, Mathew 5017 or the Tower Junior Geography Lab, you will need to use the lapel mics due to an issue with the roof mic. The issue is understood and a solution should be in place later in the week.

We will now be splitting our efforts between supporting ongoing use of the hybrid teaching spaces and upgrading the room still on Capture & Stream before the end of January. Please remember to dial #1 in a room if you have any issues and feel free to ask questions in the comments below or through Teams.

  1. Can you point me in the direction of a printed “idiots’ guide” please? I did book myself into a try out affair before Christmas but have now forgotten everything.

    1. Hi Gail,
      There is a guide on using the room on the surface of the desk and it is also located here for online access should you wish to print it off.

      Hamish has created a video here that details using the room and shows you it’s use in real time.

      Best,
      Laura
