General information for instructors

  • Please be aware and inform your students that desks, signage, etc. put in classrooms by AccessAbility Services in the Registrar's Office centrally-managed classrooms must not be touched, modified or removed.
  • Please note that class times go to :20 or :50, never :00 or :30. The only exception are Friday evening midterm slots of 4:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., and 8:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.. The reason for the 10 minute gap between each booking is to allow time for students to gather their belongings, exit the room, and give time for the incoming students to situate themselves to prepare for their class/midterm/event. 
  • It is the instructor's responsibility to keep track of the overall class size to prevent over-enrolment. Please ensure that there is sufficient number of seats in the assigned classroom to accommodate the additional student(s). 
  • If furniture is re-arranged, it must be put back to the original arrangement at the end of class. All Registrar-managed classrooms have furniture layouts posted behind plexi-glass holders on walls near room entrances if in doubt on how tables/chairs should be rearranged. Adding extra chairs to the classrooms can be a safety hazard. If instructors are missing chairs from the rooms they are assigned, please report it to Faculty of Health scheduling at health-sch@uwaterloo.ca
  • Please ensure that classrooms are in good condition before leaving. This includes turning off equipment, reconnecting equipment, cleaning the boards, etc.
  • Please ensure that you lock BMH, EXP, LHN, and LHS controlled classrooms, laboratories, and meeting rooms when you are finished using them. Given that there is faculty-owned computer equipment in these rooms, it is important to keep them safe.
