Technology in the Classroom

The Writing Program supports writing teachers who wish to integrate technology into their pedagogy. The Technology Resources for Writing Classes site is a helpful resource for teaching in computer classrooms or using technology in your teaching.

You’ll also want to check out Activities for Teaching Using Technology for a collection of class activities and examples of specific ways instructional technology can help composition students succeed. Please contact Julie Freeman, Instructional Technology Coordinator for the Writing Program, if you have any questions.

 

Reserving Computer Classrooms (Student Technology Centers, or STCs)

If you do not teach in a computer classroom and would like to reserve one (on a one-time basis), check out the information about the Student Technology Centers.
