HyFlex Classrooms
HyFlex is both a type of classroom and a course design model that focuses on allowing hybrid teaching to take place without the need for alternative teaching format limitations posed by standard classrooms. These classrooms are built on the Standard Room platform and include things like hands-free microphones and cameras to provide everyone with the ability to participate equally.
These classrooms can be identified by searching for a wall-mounted camera facing the board and are controlled by presets on the touch panel controller allowing full visibility of the presenter and the whiteboard depending on what needs to take focus.
To get the most out of these devices in your classrooms please visit the Learn Your Classroom Web Guide for more information and the Grow With Your Classroom Web Guide for helpful tips on modernizing your curriculum structure.

Recording Notice
Every Hyflex classroom will have a laminated sheet posted at the door and by the room camera to notify students and faculty that they are entering a space that can be recorded.
The devices in the room are only active when being used form the computer at the instructor station.
Digital Connections
Laptop connectivity in HyFlex rooms was one of the main considerations when designing an instructional space that could fit the varying needs of all faculty.
