The Academic Technology Center (ATC) at WPI replaces the technology in each classroom every five years. The goal of this project, sponsored by the ATC, was to determine how current classroom technology could be improved to enhance the teaching and learning experience. Using interviews and surveys we gathered both qualitative and quantitative information from more than 140 faculty members and 550 students. Based on those findings, we formulated recommendations that include increasing the size of the podium tops and moving the projector screen to maximize board space.
