 Subject: MASSMAIL - Important message for ITS classroom users

Dear faculty and staff,

For those of you interested in using the Integrated Teaching Systems 
(ITS) for your class instruction, we will soon be making a change in how 
our office handles training and the distribution of access codes.  
Starting with those instructors who request codes for the upcoming spring 
semester, training by our office staff will no longer be required.  We 
believe that this policy change will give instructors more timely access 
to the classroom technology. 

We suggest that you take advantage of updated documentation on the 
ClassTech website and in the ITS cabinets.  Brief video clips on using 
the equipment in individual classrooms are now available from the web 
pages for those classrooms.  You can use the video clips at your own pace 
and at your convenience.  (Hands-on training will continue to be 
available for those who request it).

To see the documentation, go to www.cites.uiuc.edu/classtech and click on 
the link for "Help" in the left-hand navigation.

To see descriptions and images of ITS classrooms and the new video clips, 
click on the link for "Classrooms" in the left-hand navigation and then 
click on the particular classroom of interest.

To acquire the access codes, classroom users will still need to request 
them through our website.  Click on the link for "Training and Code 
Request," in the left-hand navigation, complete the form and the code 
will be e-mailed to you, usually within a few hours.

As always, if you have questions or concerns about ITS classrooms or 
services offered by CITES Classroom Technologies, contact us at 333-8165 
or by e-mail at classtech@uiuc.edu.  Our website is 
http://www.cites.uiuc.edu/classtech.
