CLT

Going to the AT & T Center for Learning and Technology was a learning experience. First of all because I had been to the first floor of the Coates library but I had never saw the CLT center, which is an amazing place to use as a resource. As you walk in there are many computers, PC and Macs, set up in tables in different groups, such as the video/audio section and the presentation section. As we walked in further we noticed many scanners, TV’S and all the rest of the Technology found in this place was all the latest and the most advanced technology. As our guide Robert Chapman (man in charge of TLearn) sat us down on the conference room and talked about everything they had to offer I was surprised to have never heard about this place so I could have used it before. I found out about the computer usage to do videos, edit audio, create presentations, reports, download media, etc. anything with dealing with technology can be done here. I was amazed to know that in that conference room they are able to communicate with up to 15 people at the same time and be seen in the TV screen. Another thing they offer is a room with everything set up like a classroom that gives the students the opportunity to practice in this room for any presentation they might have in their class. Robert told us that they have the latest programs in these computers (for video making/reports/presentations) and that at any time we are welcome and that they can show us how to use them. Also, very interesting was that they have cameras, recorders, etc. that they check out to students to do their projects. The availability of resources and help provided here is really a great thing that all of us should take advantage of it. I think this center will help us if we have questions on how to do presentations or projects for this class or any other class. For me this will be a great opportunity to start developing and practicing how to give professional presentations as that will be a big part of my future business career.
