Teacher Info
Here is an overview of important things you should consider in order to hold an event with the Retina system.
Computer reservation
There are several rooms equipped with Retina computers. You can find a corresponding overview in the Locations section.
In addition, Retina computers can also be used via remote access. You should also reserve appropriate capacity for this for your course.
If you have any questions, please contact retina.etitlists.tu-dortmundde.
For event planning, please contact us well in advance (approximately one month before the start of the event).
Ideally, you should provide us with the following information:
- Required dates
- Expected number of participants
- Required software
- Contact details for telephone inquiries
We can be reached at retina.etitlists.tu-dortmundde.
Technical questions
A list of software installed on Retina machines is available in the software list.
If a required application is missing, please contact us at retina.etitlists.tu-dortmundde.
Notes on the procedure
It is best to instruct participants to try out the account once at least one week before the event. This can reduce delays at the start of the event (e.g. due to forgotten passwords).
Students of the Department of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology should already have an account for the Retina computer pool. If students of other departments participate in the event, please contact us regarding the required guest accounts at retina.etitlists.tu-dortmundde.
In the Confluence of the TU-Dortmund there is an area with further information for tutors of courses in the ETIT Retina Rechnerpool (rtinfo). If you or other tutors of your course do not have access to it yet, please let us know and we will add you there.
We can be reached at retina.etitlists.tu-dortmundde. You can find more information about the contact persons under"Contact".
