About Us

The AT&T Center for Learning & Technology, on the first floor of the Coates Library, offers students, faculty and staff the opportunity to explore the world of educational technology. The Studios@CLT, the focal point of the facility, provides users with high-end Windows and Mac computer workstations, scanners, audio and video digitizers and other high-tech developmental tools, all combining to create a flexible work environment for developing multimedia presentations, reports and projects. Studio users are able to connect to the Internet, download video clips, images, sounds and documents from all over the world, edit and modify these resources and incorporate them into their research and instructional materials.

For example, a Modern Languages student preparing a report on a Russian author can gather information from websites worldwide, scan and enhance photographic images of the writer and his localities, digitize video clips from one of the author's plays, and integrate all of these elements into a multimedia class presentation.

All this and much more is possible in the AT&T Center for Learning & Technology.

Use your phone to take a short (30 sec.) video of an interesting aspect of CLT. Upload it to You Tube and embed it into your blog using the source code tab. Write a short description about what you learned on your visit to CLT, describing how you might use the Center for our class, in your other classes, and for personal projects.

Part Two: Go to Lynda.com and search for Foundations of Programming: Fundamentals with Simon Allardice. Watch the Introduction (3 short parts) and Part One (4 short parts). Be prepared to answer general questions about programming on Tuesday. You will not need to use the Exercise Files at this point. You should be able to remember the names of some of the more popular programming languages.
