Overhead
Projector
Overhead projectors for transparencies are available in
nearly all classroom spaces on campus. The few exceptions
are due to a particular room's space restrictions.
Instructors who find themselves in a teaching space without
an overhead may request one by contacting
Media Technology Services.
***Please note: The term "overhead projector"
DOES NOT refer to an LCD or computer projector. An
overhead only projects transparencies, and cannot be used
with a computer. |
