Instructional Technology Services
Instructional Technology is any technology which directly supports
teaching and learning. It includes the use of computers, the Internet
and other forms of information technology, as well as the more traditional
forms of technology such as overhead, slide, and movie projectors. Like
most large universities, instructional technology on the Amherst Campus
is provided by a number of different administrative units. Together,
these units provide a comprehensive set of instructional technology
services which can meet most faculty needs. The Instructional
Technology Web Page lists various services provided on the Amherst
Campus and a link to the appropriate administrative unit. If you have
additional questions or comments please email me: rogers@provost.umass.edu
