Basic information
B2.51 is a small seminar room situated on the fifth floor of Building B2.
Small seminar rooms provide a suitable environment especially for smaller seminars based on discussion, interaction and group work. They support mobility and the free boundaries between the teacher’s space and the students’ space.
Chairs and desks are equipped with wheels, so they can be moved easily and quickly, and the lecture room layout can be adapted to different types of teaching.
Projection possibilities
There is a very short projection distance projector available for projecting multimedia content, allowing you to move close to the screen without being blinded by the projector or overshadowing the image.
You can present images and sound from a PC located on the desk and also from your own laptop connected via the HDMI or USB-C connector. Connecting cables and electrical sockets are located under the metal cover at the top of the desk.
The lecture room also allows wireless presentation of image and sound from your own Apple device (iPhone, iPad, MacBook) by connecting to Apple TV via AirPlay. You can present an image from your device without being tethered to one place in the room, and you can have your students make presentations as well.
Recording of lectures
In the lecture room, you can use the lecture recording device, which allows you to easily record your lecture. To make a recording, log in to the PC and press the Record button on the control panel – pressing the button again will end the recording.
The recording contains both the image from the camera in the room and the image projected through projector. You can pre-check it using the Stream Preview icon on the PC desktop.
You can find the finished recording in your personal category in the Faculty Media Library, you will also be informed via e-mail about the processing of the recording.
Sound is captured by a microphone array that picks up sound from the entire room. The microphone does not need to be switched on or adjusted.
If you want to record the speaker's speech in higher quality, we recommend the use of an additional lapel microphone located in the desk. Open the desk cabinet by attaching a chip card to the sensor on the side of the cabinet. A description of how to operate the lapel microphone can be found on the instructions tab or in the printed instructions in the classroom.
Hybrid teaching
The recording cameras and microphone array can also be used in video conferencing applications, typically for hybrid learning purposes. Follow the printed instructions in the classroom to properly set up the equipment in a videoconferencing application.
You can view the remote participants on the rear preview screen (TV button on the control panel) so that you can see them at the same time as the learners in the classroom. Drag the video conference participant window to the adjacent monitor, which mirrors the back screen. You can drag any other content onto the back screen in the same way.
