Webcams in
offices and classrooms A reminder that webcams, and other IT
peripherals, for offices can now be ordered via the IT Helpdesk dedicated request
page. All classrooms should have in-built audio-recording facilities
through a webcam (in addition to a radio microphone in some cases). These
enable Academic staff to use the Panopto lecture-recording software, if they
wish. Please report missing Webcams in classrooms to IT
Helpdesk. |
