SIZ Room Guidelines

Show respect for the grounded considerations that have gone into the guidelines that follow. They are based on responses of prior students and teachers in SIZ. These impacted on the arrangement and use of the three unique spaces, and have generated the guidelines you find here.

Zone Rules and Security

---

Collegial Behavior in the Zone

• Do not move furniture in SIZ spaces. Only small stools are movable, and not to be stacked.
• Upon entry, remove shoes outside D101, D102, D103. These are the only teaching and learning spaces on campus currently designed for the floor to be used for sitting and working.
• Outdoor courtyard tables and chairs are extensions of the three Innovation Zone classrooms (though they are also public areas):

Windows

• If any window is cracked open, the air conditioning shuts off. AC will not turn back on until all windows are closed.
• Make sure all windows are secured before leaving class, even if you didn’t open them.

Doors

• At end of class, verify all students have exited the room before securing the door.
• Do not let students for next class enter. Their own instructor will do so.

Key Codes

• Key codes are distributed by CTE Staff.
• Do not share key codes with anyone.

Lights

Proximity sensor turns on lights upon entry and shuts off 20 minutes after vacated.

Writing Areas

1. Sliding glass surfaces along windows
2. White boards on backside of credenza monitors
3. Wall-mounted white boards

Dry-Erase Markers and Clean Up

Supplies are stored on or in credenza. Check slide out shelf
or inside lower credenza cabinet on the HDTV side.

• Use only the provided dry erase markers. Let CTE know if they become dried out.
• Use erasers for light clean up only—do not use spray cleaner with erasers.
• Clean up at end of class with spray cleaner and microfiber cloths provided.
• Wall writing requires end of class clean up with spray and micro cloths.
• Clipboards are stored in credenza for use by students to support writing without tables.

For your own use, you may purchase whiteboard markers* recommended by faculty who found that green, orange, blue and black work best.
