The Bechtel Active Learning Center is located on level 1B of the ITL Laboratory, next to the ITLL administration office. This classroom is intended for courses taught in an active learning or collaborative/cooperative format - not for traditional lecture format. To facilitate group activities, the room is furnished with moveable chairs and round tables, wall-to-wall carpet, and large white boards on all four walls.

Room Information

• Capacity is 65 people.

• This "smart" classroom also contains a pull-down screen, an overhead projector on a rolling cart, a ceiling-mounted projector and a VCR, with controls at the podium's computer. An active ITLL computer login/password is required to access the smartroom capabilities and laptop. Personal laptops may also be used with the projection system.

• Also available in the room is a CUClickers system (to support the use of "clickers"), which is a system for students to electronically register responses to the instructor.

Active Learning Center users are expected to leave it in good shape for the next users: clean the white boards and work areas when finished, put away any materials and equipment, return all furniture to its original arrangement, and dispose of all trash.
