Very informative and rewarding. I met many people from other schools and got useful product updates from the vendors.

Preconference Seminars

Audio/Visual Equipment

Every seminar room will have the following audio/visual equipment available:

  • One corded lavaliere microphone
  • One podium microphone
  • Projection screen and projector (at least 1024 x 768)
  • EDUCAUSE-provided computers. These computers will be connected to the Internet and to a projector. The computers will have a floppy, CD, and DVD drive available, as well as USB ports. Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access), Internet Explorer, Netscape, Acrobat Reader, WinZip, Real Audio, Windows Media Player, Macromedia Flash Player, and Macromedia Shockwave Player will be installed.

If you have additional A/V needs such as the ones listed below, please contact Victoria Fanning.

  • Laptop(s): We strongly encourage presenters to use the in-room computer, but if you'd rather not, we need to know if you plan to use your own laptop (please make sure that your laptop can connect to a standard VGA).
  • House sound: Regardless of whether you use the in-room computer or your own laptop, we also need to know if you need house sound (i.e. you are playing a video or movie clip).
  • Flipcharts/set changes: If you need flipchart(s), please write with how many you need (i.e. 1 at the head table and/or 1 for every 5 attendees registered). Please also note if this request requires a set change (from classroom to rounds). Regarding set changes: If you have a half-day seminar and haven't already sent an e-mail, we may be unable to accommodate set change requests.

Internet Access

The following network connections will be available:

  • Wireless 802.11b access will be available for all presenters. The connection speed will be sufficient for accessing and navigating Web and/or e-mail pages. The SSID for access will be EDUCAUSEAIR.
  • One dedicated Ethernet line if your computers or equipment cannot use 802.11b wireless or you need to feature a specialized service such as videoconferencing. In this case, you will need to provide your own computer with a network card.
