“My journey with TLT over the past 18 months has truly transformed my approach to integrating technology into my teaching.”
“My journey with TLT over the past 18 months has truly transformed my approach to integrating technology into my teaching.”
“As a new faculty member at Penn State, I was eager to learn about the technological resources and how to use them best.”
“I am sincerely grateful for the support and resources provided by the Teaching and Learning with Technology (TLT) program. The workshops, consultations, and hands-on experiences (particularly the Canvas Prep and Practice sessions and the Learning Tool Exploration series) have helped me build digital fluency and gain confidence in using academic technologies.”
“Participating in the opportunities provided by TLT is essential for new faculty members to learn the ropes at Penn State while discovering useful information to improve and enhance our teaching. I am very thankful that Penn State provides its faculty with such excellent opportunities to grow and develop our skills while discovering how integrating new technology into our teaching can work for the benefit of our students.”
“The most impactful thing I learned from the TLT program was how much technology was available. There really is just too much out there to navigate on our own. It was so helpful to have a curated list of technologies that other instructors were using and also learning how and when they were using them.”
“I was excited to work with TLT and Top Hat staff during my first year at Penn State to design and engage students in the introductory Sociology course Social Problems. From live slides and in-class questions to reading quizzes, Top Hat allowed me to easily share material with students and create space for them to express their opinions and check their understanding of class material.”
“Not only has TLT provided me with the opportunity to teach in one of their spaces, but they have also supported me with workshop facilitation in everything from Virtual Reality to Adobe Express.”
“The first year in a tenure-track position can be challenging when balancing research, teaching, and service. However, the support of the team at Teaching & Learning with Technology has been essential in giving me access to a wide range of resources that made this year successful from the very beginning.”
A Penn State University Libraries project team has received an Equal Opportunity Planning Committee (EOPC) grant from Penn State Educational Equity to facilitate the Privacy Pedagogy for Open Inquiry and Student Expression (POISE) Project. Its faculty development cohort will support instructors University-wide in integrating privacy pedagogy into their inclusive teaching practices.
