Services

Educational Technology Support Services provides a variety of technical and instructional support services, including:

  • Standardized instructional delivery platforms
  • Collaborative learning spaces design and development
  • Expert technical consulting
  • In-class and desktop video capture and support

However, we don’t manage every aspect of educational technology on campus. For example, many campus classrooms, conference rooms and laboratories are equipped, controlled and supported by individual colleges and/or departments. Faculty needing assistance in a locally-controlled classroom should contact an administrator.

Do we cater to shorter attention spans or push students to develop understanding and the ability to focus?

Teaching English as a second language is never easy. If teachers are not well-prepared, technology can get in the way of instruction. However, what I have discovered is that this struggle has made me more thoughtful and conscience of the pedagogical decisions I make in my courses, and that has proven to be a very good thing. Developing the proper blend of theory and praxis in instruction has always been the artistic challenge facing teachers. Adding instructional technology in ways that support and underscore those pedagogical decisions serves to strengthen student learning and promote more productive outcomes.
