The Information Technology Society (ITS) has officially presented a public address (PA) system and a high-capacity multimedia projector to the Department of Information Technology and Decision Sciences, in a move aimed at improving teaching, learning, and academic presentations. The presentation ceremony took place at the office of the Head of Department (HOD) and was led by the President of the Information Technology Society, Opoku Vincent, on behalf of the current ITS administration.
Speaking during the presentation, the ITS President highlighted the technical value of the donated equipment. He explained that the projector has a brightness capacity of 4,000 lumens, ensuring clear visibility even in bright lecture environments. He further noted that the PA system delivers clear and loud audio output, addressing long-standing challenges related to sound projection in classrooms. According to him, the accompanying connectivity cables support multiple interfaces, making the system compatible with various devices used by lecturers and students. “This projector is 4,000 lumens, the audio system is very clear and loud, and the connectivity cables also support different devices. We really appreciate the opportunity to support the department,” the ITS President stated. Responding on behalf of the department, Professor Peter Appiahene, an Associate Professor and representative of the department, expressed profound appreciation to the ITS leadership for their initiative and consistency. He emphasized the importance of student–department cooperation, noting that such support makes academic work more accessible and comfortable for both lecturers and students. “As a department and as a university, we always want to cooperate with our students, and I really appreciate the leadership of the current ITS for always being up to date and supportive of the department’s work,” he said.
Professor Appiahene further explained that the newly donated PA system will significantly improve lecture delivery, eliminating the need for lecturers to strain their voices during teaching. “Now we have a system that lecturers can use, so they do not have to shout or strain their voices. This is something we truly appreciate, especially for students who may have hearing challenges,” he added. He also noted that the donation contributes to increasing the number of available projectors in the department, thereby enhancing instructional efficiency and presentation quality. The department concluded by expressing gratitude to the ITS executives and encouraging students to fully benefit from the equipment, while wishing the society continued strength and support in its future initiatives.
