The CUENet classroom is an interactive videoconferencing room on our campus that allows us to have live two-way video and audio communications with our sister campuses, Adult Ed Centers, as well as other videoconferencing sites around the world.
Badgernet
Badgernet, our second videoconferencing room, was built as part of a statewide project to connect educational sites together. The goal was to broaden horizons and share educational resources. In the summer of 2006 this system was upgraded with a new control system/user interface and new A/V codecs.This allowed the system to become even more user friendly for the instructors and staff as well as higher quality image and audio transfers.
We currently use our Badgernet classroom to broadcast classes to Living Word Lutheran High and Sheboygan Lutheran High schools.
The Media Viewing Room remodeling project was completed on March 20, 2006 in lower Luther.This project involved a complete face lift as well as internal wiring and hardware.New walls, ceiling and carpet complimented with new desks, chairs, and instruction station were all part of this project. This room has two important purposes, as a video conference room linking us with our Adult Ed. centers primarily through the MBA program and as a room to view visual media.It has five LCD flat screens to view distance sites and the ability to transmit DVD/VHS, document camera, and computer screen images to these distance sites.All of which are controlled through a very user friendly control system. A high end LCD projector and 5.1 surround sound were installed to accomplish the full viewing experience. Electrical outlets were installed under the desks to provide every student with power.This compliments the wireless access point previously installed for laptop use in class.The response from faculty and students alike has been overwhelmingly positive.
All three of these rooms have been equipped with abilities to record classes for the various E-Learning courses. We are able to capture these classes to DVD disc and also viewable from the website.
