Classroom Orientation

In preparation for the Spring 2025 semester, the UMaine Media Services team is offering guided in-room classroom technology and equipment orientation sessions for those wishing to familiarize themselves with the technology and equipment in a classroom(s) you are scheduled to use. 

To facilitate scheduling sessions, our team created this UM Classroom Orientation Appointment calendar for you to select days and times being offered, until the Spring Semester begins on January 21st, to ensure that you enjoy a glitch-free semester start.

If you have questions or wish to consider an alternate time not listed, please contact us directly at 1-207-581-2500, or by emailing help@maine.edu.

ScreenBeam

The IT Team has installed ScreenBeams in many of the classrooms. ScreenBeam is a wireless display receiver that enables native screen mirroring from your Windows, Android and Apple devices. This modernizes your classroom with app-free, dongle-free wireless presentation from any device with ability to wirelessly markup content on in-room displays. ScreenBeam is similar to Apple TV but simplifies the process to connect using Windows and Android devices as well as Apple devices. See below for connection instructions.
