PSM Classroom Tech
PSM has 14 classrooms used by PSM Instructors in the PSSB, PBL and MPS buildings. The technology in these rooms vary, with some being University supported and others supported by the HRT or PSM departments. We have five classrooms that are hybrid classrooms, which means they have a 4k camera on an arm and document camera. In Fall 2021, we hope to upgrade one more classroom to have hybrid capabilities.
