Recent renovations equipped this existing tiered auditorium with distance learning technology, making it the largest facility of its kind on The Ohio State University campus. The CEd Distance Learning Facility makes it easier for large capacity groups to reach out and engage in a face-to-face format with others in remote locations.

The auditorium features satellite uplink capabilities, interactive video conferencing for multiple simultaneous projections, combined classroom and auditorium seating — approximately half of the seats include tables wired for Internet access for connecting laptops — and both a smart podium and control room to command all aspects of the room, including lighting, sound, a dedicated computer, and the multimedia equipment.

The facility is available for use by University staff and faculty engaged in distance education. To learn more, arrange a tour of the auditorium or schedule its use, contact Tony DeCamella at (614) 688-4904 or decamella.1@osu.edu.
