Top-Ten IT Issues

Issue #7: Addressing Access Demand and the Wireless and Device Explosion

…This explosion of wireless-capable devices on campus networks is challenging many institutions (see Figure 5). The IT organization is expected to accommodate and, indeed, embrace the increased demands on the infrastructure.

Session Focus

Together we will EXPLORE a variety of wireless presentation technologies (hardware and software) that provide faculty and students with an engaging, flexible, and interactive classroom experience.

We will be able to EXPERIMENT with several technologies using a tablet or laptop for hands-on exploration.

For this seminar, we are attempting to narrow the focus to a series of tools that can provide a screen mirroring solution.
