Classroom Technology Guides

UW Bothell has three classroom technological configurations, each with their own written and video tutorials. Signage is located in all rooms identifying the type of room, and a list of rooms and type is also available online.

Note: Accessing tutorials requires logging in with your NetID.

Standard Hardware

All rooms share the same basic hardware:

  • Computer
  • Monitor
  • Desk phone
  • Touch panel
  • Keyboard and mouse
  • Webcam
  • PowerPoint remote
  • Laptop connectivity cable (HDMI, USB-C, or VGA, depending on the room)

Each standard classroom typically has the computer in the bottom-right cabinet, and any available A/V equipment can be found to the left of it. The above ePodium has, from top to bottom: a DVD player, a VCR, and a Blu Ray player (available by request).

On top of the podium you can find the touch panel, the podium monitor, a webcam, and a reading light on one side.

On top of the podium on the other side you’ll find the computer monitor, the desk phone, and the laptop cable.

Within the keyboard tray you can find the keyboard, mouse, PowerPoint remote, and spare batteries for any device in the tray that may need them.

Using the Computer

Signing In

You can sign in to a podium computer either with your NetID or with the public podium credentials (the username and password for these credentials are posted on each podium).

If you do not have a NetID then please speak to your Department Coordinator.

To sign in with your NetID, enter your username as YourNetID@netid, then enter your password into the password field.

Things to Know

  • Data on the podium computers may be erased at any time, so do not save anything important onto the podium computer. Instead, save any important files onto your U: Drive.
  • Always log off of your account when leaving the classroom to ensure that your account is secure.
  • If using the public podium credentials, be sure to always sign out of online accounts, do not sync cloud data, and do not save web browser passwords.
