Carleton proudly boasts two active learning classrooms (ALCs).These state-of-the-art learning spaces are equipped with wireless projection, multi-display functions, and student-centered furniture, layout, and design.
If you are an instructor who will be teaching in one of the ALCs, it is strongly recommended that you book a one-on-one orientation of the classroom technology. You can also learn more about your classroom below by selecting your classroom:
What do I need to teach in an ALC?
While the active learning classrooms boast a wide range of technologies, you may want to consider the following checklist before teaching in one of the rooms.
| ALC Checklist | |
| Campus Card | Contact us to be added to the access list |
| MC1 / CUNET account | Create an account using the online system |
| Orientation | We recommend that instructors book a classroom orientation session |
| Identify the number of students using laptops | We will work closely with instructors to ensure students are able to connect to the various displays in each room. Contact us for cables/adapters for laptop/tablet. |
| Fully charged laptop/tablet | There are several AC outlets available throughout the room, but to utilize the wireless podium in the room (and just as good practice), come to class with your battery fully charged. |
