TESTIMONIAL 
�As a new faculty member, I am extremely grateful for the opportunities 
provided by the CTL for professional growth and development. Over the 
past year, I have attended as many workshops as possible to help me grow 
pedagogically and personally. The CTL staff train faculty in classroom 
technology like SmartBoards, iPads, Angel, podcasting and other 
multimedia, but they also provide more specific, content-based training 
through the Faculty Spotlights and Faculty Sharing Sessions. In addition to 
getting valuable information, the sessions give faculty from different 
departments opportunity to network with and get to know each other, 
which may not happen without this setting.� 
-Andrea Laurencell, English Faculty 


Student Learning Outcomes
1) 
To improve communication between instructor and 
student/clinical instructor allowing for effectiveness 
and appropriateness in the clinical setting and on 
campus - i.e. Wi-Fi access in the field. 

2) 
To create a teaching and learning environment that 
would go beyond the confines of the traditional 
classroom to allow for an interactive teaching approachand improved student engagement. 

3) 
To understand how the iPad technology is able to 
improve one�s learning style and fulfill the use of 
technology today. 



WHAT HAPPENED?
� Communication between the ACCE and the 
clinical sites improved � real time communication 
with speedy transaction of required paperwork. 
� Student engagement improved via ease of email 
access and ability to access Banner & Angel (LMS)
course shell off campus. 
� Improvement on the use and navigation of the iPad device occurred (this will be never-ending in a positive way).

OVERALL THOUGHTS
� Still trying to figure out all the Apps which would be 
appropriate for my instruction/clinical affiliation. 
�The iPad is versatile and eliminates the need for 
carrying paper and schedules. 
� Looking forward to years to come with the use of 
this device to improve my organization and, most 
importantly, meeting the students where they are at 
in regards to technology.
