Classroom Technology: Connecting laptop to classroom projector

Overview

While all CCBC smart classrooms have an instructor station desktop or all-in-one computer, occasionally a user may want to connect their own laptop to be displayed on the screen. Please bear in mind that currently all CCBC classrooms have an HDMI connection to our projectors; if you are using an older Windows laptop or a Mac laptop without an HDMI port, you will need to bring your own HDMI adapter.

Available To

Faculty, Guests, Staff, Students using a CCBC or non-CCBC laptop in a CCBC Smart classroom

Procedure

  1. Make sure that the projector is on.
  2. Plug the extra HDMI cable located on top of the instructor station into your laptop.
  3. The signal should automatically switch from the desktop to your laptop.
