Learn New Skills
The AT staff offers a variety of opportunities to help faculty stay abreast of the growing number of technologies used in teaching and learning. Innovators and those with less experience will find our approach to technology adoption thoughtful and creative, always putting the needs of the faculty first.
We offer a series of brown bag lunches, workshops, and demonstrations throughout the semester where faculty and staff are invited to learn new skills and approaches for using technology. Our brown bag seminars and demonstrations are great opportunities to learn how faculty, staff, and students are using technology in their scholarship, teaching, work, and studies.
Faculty are encouraged to work with the AT staff through scheduled one-on-one sessions to ensure that integration of technology is thoughtful and that pedagogical needs are met. Email Jenny Darrow to schedule a session: jdarrow@keene.edu
