HyFlex Technology

The C&IT Campus and Classroom Technology Support team offers select HyFlex options to support flexible learning and working environments. This technology and the environments it creates both foster collaborations between students, faculty, and staff working together from different locations and with different abilities. 

Owl cameras 

C&IT, in partnership with the Office for Teaching and Learning (OTL), has acquired a small number of Owl cameras for use in classes and meetings.  

To request a device, fill out the Owl Hyflex Camera Request Form. Once submitted, a consultation to review the terms of use will be scheduled with the OTL. Please note: Owl cameras are not ideal for all situations; consultations are designed to find the best solution for each situation and whether an Owl camera is a good fit.

Beginning in the winter 2023 semester, select rooms across campus will be fitted with new technology to support HyFlex learning and working. This includes:
