Audiovisual equipment should be checked:

• A. During the class
• B. After the class
• C. Before the class begins
• D. End of the class

Answer: (C)

Before the class begins, you should check audiovisual equipment to ensure it's ready and functioning. Verifying that the projector, screen, computer or media player, and any presentation materials load correctly, along with the microphone and speakers at appropriate levels, prevents disruptions once you start teaching. This quick pre-check lets you confirm visibility and audio quality, confirm connections, and address any issues while you’re still in setup mode, so the lesson can flow smoothly. Checking after or during the session risks interrupting the delivery, and waiting until the end means the equipment problems won’t be resolved in time to support the current class.
