For most of you, you will bring your own computer to class. If you do not have a laptop or need one with our specialized software, we have Classroom Laptop Kits available for checkout from the Equipment Room before class.
Someone from the technical staff or Equipment Room Staff will be assigned to check in on you before your classes to make sure you are able to connect to the screen, document camera or other peripherals if you need it. Only the technical staff is allowed to install software, plug-ins, special drivers on the Classroom Laptop Kits for checkout
All requests, questions, concerns, or problems should be e-mailed in advance to helpdesk@itp.nyu.edu.
Before Your First Class
Please send your sillabubs with us at helpdesk@itp.nyu.edu along with a list of software, plug-ins, and special equipment that will need to be available for use during your class. Please include what the students will need access to during the course of the semester. If you have a week-by-week breakdown of your needs feel free to include that as well.
24-hours Before Each Class
E-mail requests for anything particular that you want to make sure will work on your classroom computer. DO NOT assume that because it worked last week that it will work this week. If you do not let us know your needs until 5 minutes before your class begins we cannot guarantee that that particular program/plug-in/equipment will be set up in time for you to use it in your class. In addition, with enough advance notice we may be able to advise you of any potential problems and suggest alternatives before your class begins.
