Description

The Academic Technology Center developed as a resource to provide faculty development, consultation, and collaborative partnerships to support the use of technology in teaching and research initiatives at MCLA.

In alignment with the College's commitment to prepare students to become active, contributing members of their communities and leaders in their chosen professions, the Academic Technology Center strives to develop an understanding of the individual needs of faculty and their students. The ATC supports faculty as they explore and apply technology as a fundamental set of tools in the academic environment.

The ATC works to build active partnerships with faculty, staff, students, and others interested in the integration of technology and academic work. Recognizing that academic applications are not separable from the larger technological infrastructure, ATC is an inherent dimension of college-wide technology initiatives - seeking to highlight the beneficial relationships that can exist between technology and education.
