This program is based on the understanding that instructional technology training often takes place during informal contact between colleagues. The mentoring program is intended to harness that opportunity and develop it to better meet the IT needs of our faculty and to to increase the faculty's appropriate application of technology for pedagogical and/or administrative purposes.

The IT Faculty Mentors will be engaged in a variety of activities to initiate and/or increase faculty involvement with instructional technologies. These activities will include
