OIT Technology News: August 2024 Edition
Partnering with the CIO Student Advisory Board, OIT's Academic Technology Services completed surveys of over 1,000 students during a two-week period for the Student Technology Survey. Gathering information about what the current student body believes are the most crucial technology-related issues at 51°µÍø and collecting both quantitative and qualitative data focusing on OIT systems, resources, and technical support, including the IT Help Desk and teaching technologies, OIT produced the Student Technology Survey Report. An abridged version is available for review by the 51°µÍø community. An infographic highlighting some of the responses concerning teaching and learning technologies plus generative AI from the survey has also been produced and shared.
We want to take a moment to introduce you to the dedicated professionals behind the OIT’s AV team. Their hard work and expertise make a significant impact on the 51°µÍø community every day.
