Best Practices for Smart Classrooms: Accessing Resources

There are many resources for Smart Classrooms that are available on NSCC's Campus Pipeline (http://pipeline.northshore.edu) under the "My North Shore" tab.  

When you click on the "My North Shore" tab, look under the "College Departments" header and then click on the "Academic Technology" link.  

This is the initial view under Campus Pipeline.  Note the College Department section on the left.  Note Academic Technology in that section.

Here you'll find many helpful resources from classroom documentation to step-by-step guides and video tutorials.  If you have any questions about these resources, please contact Dave Houle at dhoule@northshore.edu.
